Detailed Carpet Water Extraction Services Near Fitchburg

Carpet Drying Services

Drying is checked with readings every day, and equipment is adjusted until carpet, pad and subfloor are back to normal.

Carpet Pad Water Removal

When the pad is pulled, the carpet is folded back so the subfloor can dry, then relaid over new pad once readings are normal.

Carpet Water Damage Restoration

After drying, carpet is relaid over new pad, restretched and cleaned, so the room is ready to use again.

Carpet soaked by outside floodwater is removed rather than cleaned, since that water carries dirt and contaminants.
