Why Immediate Action is Critical for Carpet Water Damage
Even a small amount of water can cause significant damage if not addressed promptly. Carpets and upholstery can absorb water quickly, leading to:
- Mold and mildew growth – Moisture trapped within carpet fibers can create the perfect breeding ground for mold.
- Structural damage – The longer your carpet remains wet, the more likely it is to experience delamination and deterioration.
- Odors and staining – Standing water can leave behind stains and unpleasant odors if not properly treated.
At ServiceMaster Restore DCS – Cook County, we understand the urgency of water damage and provide fast, on-site response to minimize further loss.

Frequently Asked Questions About Carpet Water Damage
How long can carpet be wet before it is ruined?
Carpets should not remain wet for more than 24-48 hours. If left untreated, moisture can break down fibers, cause mold growth, and lead to permanent damage.
Can my carpet dry out on its own?
While carpets may dry partially, they retain hidden moisture beneath the surface, leading to mold and deterioration. Professional drying is necessary to prevent long-term damage.
Can my carpet be saved after water damage?
Yes, ServiceMaster Restore DCS – Cook County has the expertise and equipment to salvage carpets and upholstery depending on the severity and water type. We utilize powerful dehumidification and cleaning methods to restore your furnishings.
