Residential and Commercial Carpet Pad Water Extraction in El Nido
Residential Carpet Pad Water Extraction
In homes, wet pad usually follows a leak from a water heater, washer or bathroom into a carpeted room. Water is extracted, pad dried or replaced and the subfloor dried.
Commercial Carpet Pad Water Extraction
In offices and stores, carpet tiles and glued-down carpet are common. Water is extracted and the flooring is assessed, since glued carpet has no pad but traps water against the slab.
