Why it happens
Carpet padding absorbs and holds water like a sponge, often staying wet long after the surface looks dry. A burst pipe, appliance overflow, or storm water intrusion are the most common causes, and contaminated water usually means the padding needs full replacement. Even clean water left untreated for more than a day or two commonly degrades the padding enough that it stops providing useful cushioning.
How Carpet Restoration Works
Extract standing water
Water is extracted from both the carpet and the padding beneath it.
Assess salvageability
We determine whether the padding needs replacement (common with any contaminated water) while the carpet itself may be saveable.
Dry and sanitize
Remaining carpet is dried and sanitized, with moisture confirmed back to normal before the job is done.
Subfloor check
We check the subfloor underneath before putting carpet back, since trapped moisture there is easy to miss.
During the job
Our crew performs carpet water damage restoration on-site with industrial equipment, documenting each step.
After completion
Moisture readings confirmed back to normal and the space handed back to you, fully restored.
Wet Carpet? Call Before It Sits Longer.
The longer carpet stays wet, the more likely padding needs full replacement. 24/7.
Carpet Restoration Cost Factors
Padding replacement is almost always part of the cost once carpet has been wet for any real length of time, since padding is inexpensive to replace but very difficult to fully dry and sanitize in place. The carpet itself is often salvageable if it’s clean water and you call quickly, which keeps the total cost down compared to full replacement. For contaminated water, expect both carpet and padding to need replacing — we’ll tell you plainly which is the case rather than trying to save something that won’t hold up.
