New pad is matched to the carpet, and the carpet is restretched once the room is dry.

How Carpet Water Damage Restoration Works in Mint Hill
Step 1: Emergency Water Extraction
The source is stopped, furniture is moved and water is extracted from carpet and pad right away.
Step 2: Moisture Inspection
Meters map the wet area through the carpet, including walls, closets and under furniture.
Step 3: Targeted Carpet Drying Process
The carpet is floated with air or the pad is removed, and dehumidifiers dry the room.
Step 4: Final Cleaning and Treatment
Once dry, stains are treated, and backing or subfloor that stayed wet can be treated too.
Sources of Water Damage to Carpets
Sump Pump Failure in Basements
A failed sump pump floods lower-level rooms and soaks the carpet there.
Foundation Cracks and Water Seepage
Foundation cracks let groundwater seep up into carpet and pad on lower floors.
Roof Leaks and Ceiling Drips
Roof leaks drip through ceilings onto carpet, often in bedrooms and living rooms.
Overflowing Bathtubs or Sinks
Overflowing tubs and sinks send water under walls into carpeted bedrooms and halls.
