01 Start beneath the surface

Carpet water damage. Act before mould starts.

When water soaks your carpet, every minute matters. Untreated carpet water damage quickly leads to mould, odours and damage beneath the pile.

Make the area safe first. Keep clear of wet power points and appliances. Stop the source only if safe. If anyone is in danger, call 000.

02 Why speed matters under carpet

A dry surface isn’t the whole story.

Underlay can hold water after the carpet pile feels dry. Skirtings and the floor beneath may need attention too.

Emergency carpet response

We provide 24/7 emergency carpet water damage restoration across Brisbane, Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast, Sydney and Melbourne. Our IICRC-certified team uses advanced drying systems to save carpets and restore homes fast.

What soaks carpets in the first place?

The visible patch is only one clue. Tell us where the water came from, when it started and whether it is still entering.

  1. Burst Pipessudden leaks from pressure or temperature issues. Tell us whether the leak is stopped and which rooms are wet.
  2. Flooding & Storm Intrusionoften contaminated water requiring professional treatment. Photograph the area from a safe spot; contaminated water needs a different plan.
  3. Appliance Leakswashing machines, dishwashers, or hot water systems. Note the appliance and when you first saw water on the carpet.
  4. Accidental Overflowsbaths, sinks, or aquariums spilling into carpet. Keep people and pets clear; tell us which rooms or levels are affected.
  5. Roof Leakswater tracking down into flooring over time. Surface drying can leave moisture in underlay and subfloor — readings show what remains.
03 The drying plan

Five steps.
No guesswork.

The water source, affected materials and site conditions shape the work. Each step builds a clearer picture of what happens next.

  1. 01

    Inspect

    Inspection and moisture mapping — identify visible and hidden damage under carpet and underlay.

  2. 02

    Extract

    Water extraction — rapid removal of standing water from carpet and affected rooms.

  3. 03

    Dry

    Drying and dehumidification — industrial air movers and dehumidifiers for deep drying.

  4. 04

    Monitor

    Sanitisation and mould prevention — antimicrobial treatments where needed, with return readings.

  5. 05

    Document

    Monitoring and reinstatement — daily checks until carpets are safe, with job records for claims.

04 The hidden picture

See what the surface can’t tell you.

A wet patch is one clue. Moisture readings show where water has travelled; extraction and drying address what comes next.

07 Good to know

Questions, answered plainly.

Every property is different. Call with your suburb, what happened and whether water is still entering.

01How long does it take to dry wet carpet after water damage?

With professional wet carpet drying, most carpets take 3–5 days depending on severity.

02Can a flooded carpet be saved?

Yes, if addressed quickly. Clean water can often be restored. Floodwater containing sewage usually requires replacement.

03Will my insurance cover carpet water damage?

Most policies cover sudden events like burst pipes or storm damage. Reztor provides detailed reports for claims.

04What if water has been sitting for more than 24 hours?

The risk of mould rises significantly. Immediate professional drying is essential to minimise damage.
