Water Damage SERVPRO

Experiencing water damage can be a homeowner’s nightmare, and one of the biggest concerns often involves the fate of soaked carpets. SERVPRO of Ventura is your dedicated partner in addressing these pressing water damage issues, providing expert solutions to save and restore your treasured carpets.

Assessing Water Damage on Carpets

Understanding the severity and source of water damage is crucial in determining whether your carpet can be saved or not. Water damage generally falls into three categories: clean water, grey water, and black water.

1. Clean Water: This damage comes from rainwater or leaking pipes, presenting the best chance for carpet salvation. Immediate action, however, is imperative to prevent the water from degrading into more hazardous categories.
2. Grey Water: Originating from appliances like washing machines, grey water may contain some contaminants. Carpets soaked with grey water might be saved, depending on the level of contamination and promptness of the cleanup.
3. Black Water: With this category, water comes from severely contaminated sources like sewage. In most cases, carpets damaged by black water are unsalvageable due to health and safety concerns.
