We have seen all kinds of flood/water damage over the ten+ years’ we have been in the carpet cleaning industry; fish tank ruptures, burst pipes, sewerage overspills, leaking rooves, flash floods, washing machine or bath accidents.
NO MATTER THE CAUSE WE CAN PROVIDE URGENT ASSISTANCE.
Flooded carpets can lead to the complete destruction of floors, underlays, timber stumps, walls and furnishings.
Bacteria, mildew and mould can also begin to grow on and under wet carpet unless treated, and this can be a real health hazard.
This all means water extraction is urgently needed to begin flood restoration.
What happens if water damage is left untreated?
There are many ongoing effects of flooding. Most of the damage can occur if water is left sitting around, and if it isn’t treated immediately then your carpets, rugs and upholstery WILL ROT.
The moisture weakens everything and the damage gets worse the longer the damp is present. Depending on how long the water has sat around, flooding clean up can be a long and pricey process. The faster we come in and remove the water and use our specialised drying methods, the less damage will develop.
Our trusted procedures for flood damaged floors:
- One of our qualified specialists will assess the damage and suggest options to repair your property.
- The water will be removed (as much as possible) by pump and by hand.
- Your carpets will be sprayed with a special treatment, and any soggy underlays will be removed.
- We will blast the area with our commercial dryers to promptly circulate air under and over your carpets.
- Our commercial dehumidifiers will remove additional damp.
- We will sanitise the whole carpeted area then relay the dried underlays, then the carpets.
- We then deodorise and steam clean your carpets, which leave them smelling and looking fresh.
- If you are making an insurance claim we will provide you with a detailed tax invoice.
