Rely on SERVPRO for Water Extraction from Carpets

Water damage can happen in your bedroom at any time.  All it takes is a leak, a damaged pipe or even extreme weather.  A wet carpet is frustrating and you want to get it dried out as quickly as possible.  You might be worried about whether your carpet needs to be replaced.  That is why we recommend you call SERVPRO at once.  We can begin drying your carpet quickly to prevent further damage. 
 
It is understandable to be concerned that water damage in your Huntsville home means disruption for you and your family.  However, in some cases, it is possible for our IICRC-certified technicians to dry out your bedroom carpet while it is still in place.  Our experts thoroughly examine your carpet and the extent of the harm to determine whether in place drying is a practical option.  It may be necessary to remove your bed, but smaller furniture items such as a chest or a chair can simply be moved from place to place within the room until water extraction is complete. 
 
The first step is to extract any standing water.  We train our technicians to use the right type of extraction tools to extract the maximum amount of water with the minimum amount of damage to your carpet. 
 
In place, extraction may begin with a wand tool to prevent water migration.  However, the most useful piece of gear is a weighted extraction tool, which uses the body weight of one of our technicians standing on it for maximum water removal.  SERVPRO understands that drying carpet without removing it means a longer and more thorough extraction process for best results. 
 
Do not worry if your bedroom carpet is wet – it may be possible to save it.  Give SERVPRO of South Madison County a call at (256) 533-5335 to find out.
