Carpet Pad Water Extraction Services in Hickory Creek
Carpet Pad Moisture Inspection
Moisture meters check the pad and subfloor through the carpet to find how far water spread, often well past the visible wet spot.
Carpet Pad Drying Services
Carpet is lifted at a corner and air movers are set to float it, so dry air flows across the pad underneath.

Emergency extraction starts right after the source is stopped, beginning with the wettest areas near the leak.
Carpet Pad Flood Water Cleanup
