Your Carpet Water Extraction Questions Answered
Why is the carpet pad a focus during water removal?
The pad holds most of the water and sits against the subfloor, so it causes most lasting damage if left wet.
What is the goal of carpet water damage restoration?
To return the carpet, pad and subfloor to dry, clean condition so the room can be used again.
What happens during flooded room carpet cleanup?
Furniture is moved, water is pumped and extracted, pad is removed if needed and the room is dried.
What decides if carpet can be saved after water damage?
The type of water, how long it was wet, how quickly it was extracted and whether the backing held up.
Is carpet drying always needed after extraction?
Yes. Extraction removes most of the water, but drying equipment is needed to remove what is left in the pad and subfloor.
