A room that becomes humid or fogs windows after a leak often has wet pad releasing moisture.

An old leak in the same area may have left pad that never fully dried, even if the carpet looks fine.
Squelching Sounds When Walking
A squishing or squelching sound when you walk on carpet means the pad is holding standing water.

Why Carpet Pads Get Wet in Oconee
Plumbing Leaks Under Floors
Supply lines and pipes under a slab or in a crawl space leak upward into carpet and pad.
Groundwater Seepage or Flooding
Groundwater seepage and outside flooding soak carpet and pad on lower floors.
Poorly Sealed Slab Foundations
Slab foundations without a good moisture barrier can let ground moisture wick into pad.
Pet Accidents or Spilled Liquids
Pet urine and large spills soak through the carpet into the pad, where they linger.
Carpet Pad Water Extraction for Homes and Businesses in Oconee
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.
DIY Carpet Pad Drying vs. Professional Carpet Pad Water Extraction
If the water came from a toilet, sewer or outside flooding, do not try to dry the pad. It should be removed and discarded, and the carpet usually goes too.

Each extra day of air movers and dehumidifiers adds to the total.
Emergency Response Timing
Night, weekend and holiday calls can cost more than a scheduled weekday visit.
Pad Removal Necessity
