Detailed Carpet Pad Water Extraction Offerings in Buffalo
Wet Carpet Pad Removal Services
Soaked pad is cut out in sections, rolled and bagged. Pad is inexpensive and holds water for a long time, so replacing it is often the practical choice.

After drying, an antimicrobial can be applied to the subfloor where pad sat wet for days, before new pad is installed.
Carpet Pad Flood Water Cleanup
After a flood, the carpet is extracted, the pad is pulled and the subfloor is cleaned before drying, especially if the water came from outside.
Subfloor Drying After Pad Removal
Drying the subfloor fully before new pad goes down keeps odors and stains from coming back through the carpet.
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.

A squishing or squelching sound when you walk on carpet means the pad is holding standing water.

Dark edges on the subfloor or tack strips near walls show water has reached the floor beneath the pad.
