Drying Abbotsford

If you’re wondering how long wet carpets need to be left before they become moldy, then the answer is that there isn’t a specific time frame. You can’t just leave them and wait for nature to take its course, because if you do, then you risk having mould and mildew growing inside your house, and we don’t want that to happen.

If you’re dealing with such a situation and need to learn how to dry a wet or flooded carpet, then Wet Carpet Cleaners are here for you.

Flooded carpet drying in Abbotsford

First, remove any pieces of heavy furniture that are sitting on the wet area so they don’t get damaged when the water recedes. Furniture may cause damage to floors, carpets, or walls if they’re left there.

Water that has soaked into the carpet is harder to remove than water that is just sitting on top of it. So you should act fast to get rid of any excess water from the carpet before it gets absorbed too deeply.

You can use a clean white cloth or paper towels to blot the water. Use your hands to press down firmly on top of the damp cloth. Squeeze out excess moisture, then lift off the cloth. Replace it with a dry rag or paper towels. Repeat if needed.

Finally, you could alternatively use a wet (or even a dry) vacuuming system to remove the extra moisture.
