What's included

What Our Carpet and Flooring Water Damage Restoration Includes

Every job starts with a full assessment and includes extraction, drying, and restoration of affected carpet and hard flooring. We also handle insurance documentation. Add-on services like drywall repair or content pack-out are available when needed.

01
✓

Moisture Mapping and Assessment

We use moisture meters and thermal imaging cameras to map exactly where water traveled. This tells us whether carpet padding is saturated and whether water reached the subfloor. Assessment takes 30 to 45 minutes and sets the scope for everything that follows.

02
✓

Water Extraction from Carpet and Padding

Truck-mounted extractors and weighted extraction heads pull water from deep in carpet fibers and padding. We also use submersible pumps for standing water. A typical room takes one to two hours to extract. Fast removal is the key to saving carpet.

03
✓

Structural Drying with Air Movers and Dehumidifiers

We position Dri-Eaz air movers and dehumidifiers to dry carpet, padding, subfloor, and surrounding walls. Drying runs three to five days. We check moisture readings daily and adjust equipment until everything hits safe levels.

04
✓

Antimicrobial Treatment

After extraction, we apply EPA-registered antimicrobial treatments to carpet, padding, and hard surfaces. This stops mold growth and addresses bacteria from groundwater or sewage backup. Treatment is included on every water damage job.

05
✓

Carpet Re-Stretching and Flooring Repair

Once everything is dry, we re-stretch carpet and reinstall baseboards. For hardwood, we assess cupping and recommend repair or replacement. Most carpets can be re-stretched and returned to service the same day drying is complete.

06
✓

Insurance Documentation and Reporting

We photograph affected areas, log daily moisture readings, and provide a scope of work formatted for insurance claims. We use Xactimate estimating so your adjuster gets the detail they need. You get a complete package for your claim.

How it works

Our Carpet and Flooring Water Damage Restoration Process

You call 410-709-0950 and describe the situation. We ask about the water source, how long it has been sitting, and whether the carpet is glued down or stretched. We dispatch a crew with the right equipment for your specific flooring type. Most Annapolis-area calls get a same-day response.

Our technician walks the affected area with moisture meters and thermal imaging cameras. We map the water migration, check for hidden moisture under baseboards, and classify the water category. You get a clear scope of work before we start. This assessment typically takes 30 to 45 minutes.

We remove standing water using submersible pumps and truck-mounted extractors. For carpet, we use weighted extraction heads that pull water from deep in the fibers and padding. A typical flooded basement takes two to four hours to extract. We also check sump pump check valves and backwater valves if the source was a backup.

We position air movers and dehumidifiers to dry carpet, padding, subfloor, and surrounding walls. Drying typically takes three to five days depending on humidity and material. We monitor moisture readings daily and adjust equipment placement. You get updates each day so you know exactly where things stand.

Once moisture readings hit safe levels, we re-stretch carpet, reinstall baseboards, and complete any flooring repairs. We do a final walkthrough with you, showing moisture readings and confirming everything is dry. You get documentation for your insurance claim. Most jobs wrap within five to seven days.

Tools & methods

Tools and Methods We Use for Carpet and Flooring Restoration

01
✓

Truck-Mounted Water Extractors

Pull water from deep in carpet fibers and padding. These units remove more water than portable vacuums and speed up drying time significantly.

02
✓

Submersible Pumps

Remove standing water from flooded basements before extraction. Essential when water is more than an inch deep.

03
✓

Dri-Eaz Air Movers and Dehumidifiers

Dry carpet, padding, subfloor, and walls. We position them based on moisture mapping to hit target drying times of three to five days.

04
✓

Moisture Meters and Thermal Imaging Cameras

Detect hidden moisture under carpet, behind baseboards, and in subfloor. We use these to confirm drying is complete before removing equipment.

05
✓

Floor Drying Mats

Dry hardwood floors without causing further cupping. These mats pull moisture through the wood slowly and evenly.

06
✓

Wet/Dry Vacuums (Shop-Vac, RIDGID)

Pick up residual water after extraction and clean up small spills. Useful for tight spaces where truck-mounted units cannot reach.
