Water damage can happen from a number of different sources, not just heavy rainfall and rising rivers and creeks. In fact, most water damage in homes is from other sources, such as blocked sewer pipes, malfunctioning toilets, or leaking washers.
It is important to extract water from water-soaked carpet within 72 hours. If the water is not removed, the carpet backing, which is glued, dissolved and the carpet is destroyed.
A common mistake that homeowners make when they clean their own carpet is related to water damage. It is tempting to over saturated carpet when cleaning heavily soiled areas. When you do that, it breaks down the delaminate on the carpet backing and causes wrinkles and buckling in the carpet.
Our high-powered equipment delivers between 350-500 PSI of 200 degree hot water to remove more dirt and grime in the carpet cleaning process. Rental machines operate at about 50 – 100 PSI with perhaps 90 degree water while cleaning. The difference in the power translates quickly in the finished results.
