Illustration: Water Extraction: What to Do After a Flood

Flood restoration for homes and businesses

Water spreads quickly through carpet and underlay, and the longer it sits the greater the risk of mould, odours, delamination and damage to floors and furniture. Mould can start to grow within 24 to 48 hours, so the first steps matter.

Pro Wet & Dry uses industrial-grade extraction and drying equipment to remove water from carpets, underlay and soft furnishings, then dries and treats the affected areas to help get homes, rentals and businesses usable again as quickly as possible.

What to do first

If it's safe, stop the source of the water and switch off power to affected areas. Lift furniture off wet carpet, move valuables and rugs, and photograph the damage for your insurer. Then call us for water extraction as soon as possible.

What we assess

Every job starts with the water source, the carpet type, the underlay, the rooms affected and the floor construction. Clean water from a burst pipe is handled very differently from storm or sewage-contaminated water, where underlay usually needs replacing.

FAQ

Flood Recovery FAQs

Can wet carpet be saved after a flood?

Often, yes, if it was clean water and it is extracted and dried quickly. Carpet affected by storm or sewage water, or left wet for several days, may need replacing along with the underlay. Pro Wet & Dry will assess it and tell you honestly.

How quickly should flood water be extracted?

As soon as possible. Mould can begin to grow within 24 to 48 hours, so fast extraction and drying are the best way to limit damage and odours.

Is a wet vacuum enough after a flood?

A household wet vacuum can lift surface water from a small spill, but it can't pull water out of the underlay. Industrial extraction equipment removes far more water and dramatically shortens drying time.
