Your Carpet Water Extraction Questions Answered
When is water damaged carpet removal necessary?

The pad holds most of the water and sits against the subfloor, so it causes most lasting damage if left wet.
Is moving furniture part of carpet water extraction?
Yes. Furniture is moved out or set on blocks so all wet carpet can be extracted and stains are avoided.
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 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.
