Water Extraction in Bastrop done right means extracting every drop — the visible and the hidden — and transitioning immediately to a calculated drying program before the 24-48 hour mold clock expires.
Removes water faster than any portable unit.
FLIR thermal cameras reveal moisture in walls and under floors invisible to the naked eye.
Daily readings tracked until drying targets are met.
Handles water at depths portable extractors cannot.
The gap between a good extraction and a mediocre one isn't visible until weeks later — when mold shows up behind a wall that felt dry after a shop-vac cleanup. Here's what makes COS Water Damage Restoration's Bastrop extraction service different.
Every Bastrop job gets truck-mounted extraction rated for high-volume output, thermal imaging cameras that reveal sub-surface saturation, and moisture meters that document conditions at every sensor point. Consumer rental equipment doesn't come close.
Our Bastrop crews are positioned locally — not dispatched from a regional hub. We target 60 minutes on-site from your call, with equipment staged during transit so we're working within minutes of arrival.
Science-based extraction and drying produces better outcomes than intuition-based approaches.
On arrival in Bastrop, our crew assesses, prepares a written Xactimate-based estimate, and reviews it with you before a single piece of equipment is operated. The approved number is the invoiced number.
COS Water Damage Restoration's Bastrop Water Extraction team handles every water extraction scenario — from residential flooding to large commercial events — with equipment and technique matched to the specific situation.
Truck-mounted extraction systems — the most powerful commercial water removal equipment available — are deployed for high-volume flooding events in Bastrop: storm flooding, major pipe failures, and large appliance failures that release significant water rapidly. Truck-mount output far exceeds portable units, reducing total extraction time and limiting saturation of structural assemblies.
Extraction of visible standing water is only half the job. Thermal imaging cameras and calibrated moisture meters map where water has traveled beneath flooring, inside wall cavities, and above ceiling assemblies before extraction ends — so the drying plan addresses the complete scope of moisture, not just what was visible on arrival.
Hardwood floor salvage is a specialty — not every water extraction crew in Bastrop has the training or equipment to do it right.
Below-grade water extraction in Bastrop requires submersible pump capability for standing water, then portable extractor transition for residual moisture, and finally vapor barrier inspection and replacement to prevent recurring moisture accumulation. Confined space protocols apply in crawlspaces with limited access — our Bastrop crew carries the right equipment for each below-grade scenario.
Carpet and pad systems hold water effectively — up to a gallon per square yard — and standard extraction passes often leave substantial moisture in the pad beneath. Our Bastrop crew uses weighted extraction tools that apply appropriate pressure during the extraction pass, then evaluates whether pad salvage or replacement is more cost-effective based on the category and saturation level of the water.
Commercial extraction documentation is prepared to adjuster-ready standard throughout the process.


Live Bastrop dispatch — no voicemail, no hold queue, no automated menu.
Our crew arrives with truck-mounted and portable extraction equipment configured for your reported scenario. Equipment is staged during transit so the crew is productive immediately on arrival — not spending 20 minutes unloading and setting up in your driveway.
Thermal imaging and moisture mapping precede extraction — so the scope is fully known before equipment runs. A written estimate is reviewed with you and approved before work begins. No extraction happens without your sign-off on the scope and cost.
We don't leave after extraction — we stay to set up drying so the project transitions without delay.



"I've dealt with water damage before and had a mediocre extraction company leave moisture behind that turned into a mold problem. When it happened again in my Bastrop home, I specifically asked what equipment the company used before booking. COS Water Damage Restoration mentioned their truck-mounted systems and that sold me. The difference in output versus my previous experience was obvious — they were pulling water at a rate I hadn't seen before. Moisture mapping after extraction showed everything was clear. The drying crew followed immediately. Zero mold issues six weeks later."
"Our hardwood floors in a Bastrop craftsman home were at risk after the flooding. The COS Water Damage Restoration crew's extraction specialist assessed the moisture content in the boards during extraction and confirmed they were within the drying window for mat drying. We saved the floors — the difference in cost versus replacement was significant. The specialist explained the whole process and called with readings every morning."
"We called COS Water Damage Restoration after another company did what I now know was an incomplete extraction of our Bastrop basement. When COS Water Damage Restoration arrived, their moisture mapping immediately showed saturation under the floor tiles that the first company's work had missed entirely. They extracted the residual moisture, replaced the vapor barrier in the crawlspace, and set up a proper drying program. The first company charged us and left a mold problem waiting to happen. COS Water Damage Restoration fixed it correctly."
