SERVPRO Helps with In-Place Drying and Removal of Carpets for Water Restoration

Whether there is a leak or other water intrusions in a house, highly porous materials such as carpets are vulnerable since they absorb the water quickly. The absorbed water can cause different problems, including deterioration of the material or bad odor. Drying carpets is also challenging since regular water extractors cannot remove all the absorbed water.

SERVPRO can help tackle all challenging tasks during water restoration in your Rocky Hill home, including finding a solution for your wet carpets, area rugs, and other heavily porous contents. Our Water Restoration Technicians use different restoration approaches after assessing the specifics of the situation, including:

• Carpet construction
• The amount of water involved
• The duration of exposure to the water

The information gained from the evaluation helps our SERVPRO technicians determine whether to remove the carpet or dry it in place. Some factors like extended exposure to water necessitate removal because there is a higher likelihood of physical damage such as delamination or even mold development. In case we determine in-place removal is possible, our SERVPRO technicians use deep extractors such as the water claw to improve efficiency.
