Wet carpet is extracted with truck-mounted or portable units, pulling water from the fibers, backing and pad in repeated slow passes.

Several slow extraction passes remove much more water than a single pass, which shortens drying time.

Water Damaged Carpet Pad Replacement

New pad is matched to the carpet, and the carpet is restretched once the room is dry.

Carpet Water Damage Restoration FAQ

How does the water category affect carpet restoration?

For a small spill, yes. For soaked carpet, home fans leave the pad wet underneath, which leads to odors and stains.

Does carpet water damage restoration remove odors?

Drying the pad and subfloor removes most odors. If a smell remains, the pad is usually replaced.

Why is emergency carpet water removal so important?

Carpet and pad hold water against the subfloor. Fast removal limits odors, delamination and subfloor damage.
