Saving Your Carpeting After Water Disasters
Carpeting is a highly porous material used in your home to cover hard subflooring materials and create an attractive finish. However, these materials are most likely to be directly impacted by water damage as it accumulates in a room. Our team relies on weighted extractors, carpet wands, and air movers to manipulate the upper rug layer and padding underneath to dry the material and preserve it, if possible. It is often necessary to thoroughly inspect the carpet and padding to determine its salvage ability before these drying processes begin. It can sometimes be more efficient to remove this flooring material and efforts to save the subflooring underneath.
Protecting Valuable Hardwood from Water Damage
When water damage influences wood and plank flooring, it can begin to change its physical composition through swelling, warping, and distortion. Drying mats are the most common approach to preventing this change to the floors, as this can draw out the moisture trapped in the planks and underneath to avoid unpleasant renovation and reconstruction needs. However, should these floors require replacement, we at Sansara can help.When you choose Sansara for restoration and recovery, you are getting an attentive team capable of protecting your home’s flooring and building materials affected by water damage. From powerful extractors to advanced drying systems, we are ready 24/7 to give your home the help it requires after a leak or flood.
