Signs to look for

When to call us for carpet extraction

For the written restoration scope, if you notice any of these problems, call us before water has more time to spread into nearby materials.

The volume in the floor is larger than it looks

From the first moisture reading, a saturated cushion holds roughly a gallon of water for every 10 square feet of floor.

The carpet feels cool and heavy but not obviously wet

During our assessment, cut pile carpet wicks water up and evaporates from the tips, so the surface reads dry.

A dark tide line runs along the base of the wall

As our specialists document the loss, carpet pulls water outward and upward at the perimeter. As our specialists document the loss, that line marks the measured reach of the water after it stopped moving on its own.

The carpet has lifted off the tack strip in a corner

As our specialists document the loss, wet carpet gets heavy and pulls free of the tack strip pins.

A seam has opened or is peaking

From the first moisture reading, seam tape is held with adhesive that softens when it stays wet.

The backing feels gritty or crunchy underfoot

As our specialists document the loss, latex adhesive between the face and the secondary backing breaks down as it stays wet.

What happens

How we handle carpet extraction

Our restoration specialists adjust the work to the areas and materials involved, the measured reach of the water, and the materials that can be saved.

A moisture read through the whole assembly

For the written restoration scope, we verify the pile, the pad and the subfloor with a moisture meter before starting. During our assessment, the reading through to the deck decides the method, not how wet the surface feels.

Passes that reach the backing, not the pile

As our specialists document the loss, a weighted extraction tool presses the carpet and cushion into the vacuum slot so water leaves the backing.

The float or pad pull decision

During our assessment, floating means detaching one edge and pushing air between the carpet and the cushion. During our assessment, we identify it over pad removal when the water was clean and the cushion is worth trying.

Perimeter and detail extraction

During our assessment, water concentrates at the walls and under the tack strip line, where a big tool cannot sit flat.

Seam and stretch protection while we work

As our specialists document the loss, we keep tools off open seams and support loose edges instead of dragging on them.

Drying equipment sized to the assembly

During our assessment, air movers are placed to sweep the surface or the space under a floated carpet, and an Professional dehumidifier removes that moisture from the air.

What to expect

What to expect from our restoration specialists

Here is how we in many cases handle carpet extraction near North Carolina.

1
Describe how deep and how long

As our specialists document the loss, say how much water is on the carpet, what it came from, and how many hours it has been there.
Your call
2
Stay off it and get the furniture up

From the first moisture reading, walking on soaked carpet drives water deeper into the pad and stresses the backing.
+5 minutes
3
Read the assembly and set the plan

For the written restoration scope, a technician meters the pile, the pad and the subfloor and checks the seams and the tack strip.
On arrival
4
Gross extraction on the free water

As our specialists document the loss, the truck mounted extractor pulls the standing volume out of the assembly first.
First hour on site
5
Slow weighted passes until it stops giving water

During our assessment, weighted and self propelled tools work the room in overlapping slow passes, then the perimeter and closets get detailed.
Day 1
6
Carpet floated or pad removed, then equipment set

During our assessment, if we float, an edge is detached and air is pushed between the carpet and the pad.
Day 1, evening
7
Daily readings through carpet, pad and deck

From the first moisture reading, the same points get read every visit and logged, including the subfloor under the assembly. As our specialists document the loss, carpet is in many cases the first layer to reach target and the deck the last.
Day 2 to 3

Understanding the cost

What can affect the price

We review with you the written restoration scope and price before you approve the job. These examples show what may change the estimate.

Common situation	What the estimate may include	Typical range
Carpet and pad extraction, one to two rooms, pad left in place	As our specialists document the loss, national estimate for the extraction stage only. For the written restoration scope, drying equipment is billed separately per unit per day.	$350 to $1,000
Carpet extraction priced by area, clean water	During our assessment, national estimate for the mechanical extraction stage on typical residential carpet and cushion.	$1 to $3 per square foot
Whole floor of wet carpet, three or more rooms	For the written restoration scope, national estimate for extraction across a connected carpeted floor, before drying equipment and cleaning.	$700 to $2,500
Drying equipment only, one carpeted room, three days	National estimate for the equipment line alone, according to typical air mover and dehumidifier day rates.	$300 to $700
Hot water extraction cleaning after drying, per square foot	During our assessment, national estimate for cleaning and grooming the carpet once the assembly is verified dry.	$0.25 to $0.60
Reattach and stretch a floated carpet, per square foot	For the written restoration scope, national estimate covering laying the carpet back on the tack strip, stretching and minor seam repair.	$0.60 to $1.50

Square footage of wet carpet
We measure the impacted area with a meter, which is commonly smaller than the room. Water spreads unevenly and stops where the pad stops taking it.
How saturated the pad is
From the first moisture reading, a damp assembly takes a couple of passes. During our assessment, a pad holding standing water takes many slow passes and more equipment days.
Float versus pad removal
Floating keeps your carpet and pad in place and saves material cost. Pad removal adds tear out, disposal and new cushion, but commonly shortens the drying by a day.
Carpet construction
As our specialists document the loss, cut pile releases water readily under a weighted tool.
Access and furniture
From the first moisture reading, stairs, tight hallways and heavily furnished rooms slow the tool down.
Equipment days
As our specialists document the loss, air movers run roughly $25 to $40 per unit per day and Professional dehumidifiers roughly $70 to $110 per unit per day.

Why timing matters

What can happen when the area stays wet

Moisture can keep moving into nearby materials even when the surface looks dry.

The backing delaminates and the carpet is done

As our specialists document the loss, latex adhesive holding the face to the secondary backing softens and lets go when it stays wet.

Jute backing shrinks and never fits again

As our specialists document the loss, older carpets and many rugs use jute backing, which shrinks hard as it dries.

Seams open and edges have to be reworked

As our specialists document the loss, seam tape adhesive fails after a day or two under water.

Wicking pulls stains up from the pad

As our specialists document the loss, as the assembly dries, water travels up through the fibers and carries old soil with it.

Helpful service information

What to know about carpet extraction

First identify the short explanation. Open a card if you want a little more detail.

What is happening inside the property

From the first moisture reading, the slot has to seat flat so it seals against the secondary backing, because that is the layer holding the water.

Read the explanation

For the written restoration scope, carpet extraction is decided at the vacuum slot. From the first moisture reading, the slot has to seat flat so it seals against the secondary backing, because that is the layer holding the water.

How the next step is decided

During our assessment, one edge comes off the tack strip, then an air mover is aimed into the gap so dry air travels between the carpet and the pad.

Read the explanation

For the written restoration scope, floating a carpet is the technique that saves both layers. During our assessment, one edge comes off the tack strip, then an air mover is aimed into the gap so dry air travels between the carpet and the pad.

What may change the work

The face yarn is tufted through a primary backing, then a secondary backing is bonded on with latex adhesive.

Read the explanation

Carpet is built in layers, and water attacks the glue between them. The face yarn is tufted through a primary backing, then a secondary backing is bonded on with latex adhesive.

Common questions

Questions about carpet extraction

Can wet carpet be saved?

From the first moisture reading, in many cases yes when the water was clean and we reach it within a day or two.

What does floating the carpet mean?

From the first moisture reading, we detach one edge from the tack strip and blow air between the carpet and the pad.

How do you decide whether to float or pull the pad?

During our assessment, water cleanliness first, then how saturated the cushion is, then the value of the carpet.

How long does carpet extraction take?

From the first moisture reading, the extraction itself is in many cases a few hours on one to two rooms. As our specialists document the loss, drying the assembly commonly takes three days.

Can I dry the carpet myself?

As our specialists document the loss, a shop vacuum handles surface water up to about an inch and never reaches the backing. During our assessment, home machines lack the weight and vacuum to pull water from the pad.

Will walking on wet carpet make it worse?

As our specialists document the loss, yes. From the first moisture reading, foot traffic drives water deeper into the cushion and stresses the backing and the seams.

What is carpet layers separating?

From the first moisture reading, it is the face of the carpet separating from its secondary backing, because the latex adhesive between them failed.
