Emergency Carpet Pad Water Extraction

Water is pressed out of the carpet and pad with weighted extraction tools, which remove far more water from the pad than a surface wand.

When to Call for Carpet Pad Water Extraction in Pickens

An old leak in the same area may have left pad that never fully dried, even if the carpet looks fine.

Spongy Carpet Feel Underfoot

Carpet that feels spongy, soft or springy in one area is often sitting on soaked pad.

Water Stains on Subfloor Edges

Dark edges on the subfloor or tack strips near walls show water has reached the floor beneath the pad.

Carpet that wrinkles, ripples or bubbles has loosened from the tack strips, often because the pad and backing got wet.

How Carpet Pad Water Extraction Works in Pickens

Both Residential & Commercial Carpet Pad Water Extraction in Pickens

Residential Carpet Pad Water Extraction
