The Carpet Pad Water Extraction Process in Pinehurst
Carpet Pad Mold Prevention Treatment
Fast extraction and drying are the main ways to limit microbial growth under carpet. Treatment is added where materials stayed wet.
Subfloor Drying After Pad Removal
Wood subfloors are checked for swelling and soft spots, and concrete slabs are dried until readings are normal.
Water Damaged Carpet Pad Replacement
Replacement pad is matched to the carpet type and room, and carpet is restretched over it once the area is dry.
Carpet Pad Flood Water Cleanup
Floodwater carries dirt and contaminants, so pad it soaked is removed and discarded, and the carpet is usually removed too.
Carpet Pad Moisture Inspection
Readings are recorded before removal and during drying, giving a clear record for your insurer.
