Carpet Restoration Services in South Florida

Easier Tearing and Ripping - While you may not see the immediate structural damage on your carpets, water weakens its fibers and latex backing over time. This makes the carpet more susceptible to tears and rips from footsteps and furniture movement. Even if the carpet survives the initial flooding, its overall lifespan is greatly diminished if proper cleaning and restoration measures aren't applied.

Fire Hazard - Some homes and facilities have the bad habit of having electrical wiring run under their carpets. Over the years, the weight of human traffic and the movement of heavy objects on top of the carpet can wear out the insulations that cover the wires underneath it. When a live wire is exposed and it comes into contact with wet patches of carpet, you're looking at a serious fire hazard that can cause severe property damage and potential loss of human life.

Mold Infestation - Harmful fungi such as mold love damp surfaces where there's ample food to keep them nourished. A carpet that's been exposed to water fits that description perfectly. At its onset, mold growth can be hard to spot on your carpet. It's only after the fuzzy fungus forms small colonies that it becomes clearly visible to a lot of people. Touching, cleaning, or treading on mold can be dangerous because the slightest of forces can send its spores flying. Skin contact or inhalation of spores have been known to cause irritations, respiratory disorders and even poisoning. Please call us for mold removal services if you are in need of mold remediation.

Musty Odors - Stale moisture on carpets and mold growth produce musty smells that are hard to get rid of. Air fresheners only mask these odd smells but don't necessarily remove their causes.

Pest Attraction - Common household pests are drawn in by damp surfaces. Rats and roaches love it even more when that surface is your carpet. These pests can haul in deadly germs which can infect people and pets that come into direct contact with the carpet. Get Help from All County DKI.
