Carpet Pad Water Extraction Services in Des Allemands
Emergency Carpet Pad Water Extraction
Water is pressed out of the carpet and pad with weighted extraction tools, which remove far more water from the pad than a surface wand.
Wet Carpet Pad Removal Services
After the pad comes out, tack strips are checked and replaced if they are wet, stained or rusted.
Subfloor Drying After Pad Removal
Drying the subfloor fully before new pad goes down keeps odors and stains from coming back through the carpet.

Readings are recorded before removal and during drying, giving a clear record for your insurer.
Carpet Pad Mold Prevention Treatment
Tack strips and subfloor edges along walls are checked closely, since they often stay wet the longest.

Water Stains on Subfloor Edges
Dark edges on the subfloor or tack strips near walls show water has reached the floor beneath the pad.
Bubbles or Wrinkles in Carpet
Carpet that wrinkles, ripples or bubbles has loosened from the tack strips, often because the pad and backing got wet.
Visible Carpet Discoloration
Brown or yellow spots that appear or return on carpet are often water wicking up from wet pad.
