Water Removal and Carpet Cleaning are Assured in Wetumpka When SERVPRO Is Called

SERVPRO Works Hard to Restore Carpets Damaged by Water

An overflowing toilet is a usual water damage issue in many Wetumpka area homes. The carpeting in your den is wet with dirty toilet water from the overflowing toilet in your downstairs bathroom. Deep cleaning carpeting is of utmost importance when this occurs in homes. We advise against trying to clean carpeting on your own if you want it to be thoroughly clean and free of harmful contaminants. If the damage is a sewage backup, then the carpeting must be discarded.

Calling SERVPRO water damage specialists to clean the carpet in Wetumpka homes is probably the better option than doing it yourself. There are three levels of clean, which are sterile, disinfected and sanitary. Getting carpeting 100 percent is extremely difficult to achieve and is mostly for hospitals. We do not offer sterile cleaning. Disinfected is around 99 percent and is safe for humans. Generally, this level is for the presence of sewage or blood that can be harmful to one’s health. We can safely remove biohazardous materials. To clean contaminated areas, technicians use EPA-registered disinfectants.
 
The sanitary level of clean is the minimum, and most common level technicians use in homes for water damage issues like overflowing toilets or leaky plumbing. Sanitary cleaning can remove dirty water and contaminates. Unsanitary conditions can create a possible health hazard. Cleaning to the sanitary level helps reduce that risk. The minimum service, SERVPRO can clean homes to the sanitary level. We use the proper equipment to ensure sanitary cleaning, which may include truck-mounted vacuums, air blowers, industrial fans and air dryers.
 
Technicians check for moisture effects on the carpet. Our primary objective is to restore carpet and make it look like “Like it never even happened.” Water saturation for both carpeting and padding is the first issue we check. Overly wet carpeting and padding can deteriorate, a process called delamination which is the separation of layers that can negate a restoration. If carpeting and padding are in good condition, the cleaning and drying process can begin. If that is the case, we inform homeowners so they can contact a professional contractor to replace the carpet. We can work with insurance adjusters.
