Carpet Water Extraction Common Questions Answered

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.

Can carpet pad water removal save the carpet?

Often yes. Replacing soaked pad lets the subfloor dry and keeps odors from coming back, while the carpet is dried and relaid.

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.

When is water damaged carpet removal necessary?

When the water was dirty, the carpet delaminated or it stayed wet long enough to smell or stain badly.

How long does the carpet water damage repair process take?

Extraction takes hours, drying often takes a few days and relaying or replacing carpet follows after.
