Why Professional Carpet Water Extraction is Essential
Water-damaged carpets hold large amounts of moisture, which can quickly spread into the underlay, subfloor and surrounding walls. This creates the perfect environment for bacteria and mould to grow. Without professional carpet water extraction, you may face:
- Permanent staining or discolouration
- Odours caused by bacterial contamination
- Damage to underlay and subfloor materials
- Increased risk of mould growth within 24–48 hours
Our carpet water extraction Brisbane process includes:
- Inspection and Assessment – Determine the extent of water damage and identify affected areas
- Water Extraction – Remove as much water as possible using high-powered extraction equipment
- Drying and Dehumidification – Use air movers, heat dryers and dehumidifiers to eliminate moisture from the carpet, underlay and subfloor
- Sanitising and Cleaning – Apply treatments to remove bacteria and odours
- Monitoring – Use moisture meters to confirm complete drying before restoration is considered complete
