Carpets are often a central focus for water mitigation in your Nutley home. Carpets and other textiles are made up of dense fibers which can easily and quickly absorb moisture. A carpet that appears dry can often contain to retain moisture and continue to cause damage to the subfloor. SERVPRO technicians are adept at recognizing potential damage-causing parts of the home and using advanced mitigation strategies to prevent it from happening.

• Water can cause delamination of carpet fibers from the backing of the carpet. Full delamination usually requires carpet replacement but can be mitigated by detaching and thoroughly drying the carpet. 
• Floating carpets is a process where air movement is applied between the carpet laminate and the subfloor. It is often vital to mitigating long-term damages in the home. 
• Pre-conditioning, drying, and buffering the carpet fibers using rotary machinery can go some way to restoring a carpet to its preloss condition after water exposure.
