Carpet Water Extraction Common Questions Answered
What does an emergency carpet water pump out involve?
Pumping standing water off the carpet first, then extracting the carpet and pad with weighted tools.
Are antimicrobials used after soaked carpet cleanup?
They can be applied to the subfloor and backing where carpet stayed wet for days, after drying.
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 is progress monitored during carpet drying?

Why is the carpet pad a focus during water removal?
The pad holds most of the water and sits against the subfloor, so it causes most lasting damage if left wet.
