Carpet Water Extraction FAQs
What is carpet water extraction?
Removing water from wet carpet and pad with pumps and weighted extraction tools, then drying the carpet and subfloor beneath.
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.
How quickly should wet carpet cleanup begin?
Right away. Carpet extracted within hours is far more likely to be saved than carpet left wet overnight.
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.
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.
