Frequently Asked Questions

How quickly should water extraction be done after a flood or leak?

Water extraction should be done as soon as possible, ideally within 24 to 48 hours, to prevent significant damage. The longer water sits, the higher the risk of mould growth and structural damage to flooring, walls and furniture. Professional water extraction services use high-powered equipment to remove moisture quickly, preventing long-term issues.
What equipment is used for professional water extraction?

Professional water extraction involves specialised tools, including industrial-grade vacuums, pumps and air movers. High-powered vacuums remove standing water from carpets and floors, while air movers and dehumidifiers help speed up the drying process. This combination ensures efficient moisture removal and reduces the chances of hidden water damage.
What’s the advantage of professional bond carpet cleaning over DIY methods?

In many cases, water-damaged carpets can be salvaged if water extraction is done promptly. Professional services extract water, clean the carpet and speed up drying to prevent mould. However, if the water is contaminated (e.g., from a sewage backup), the carpet may need to be replaced to ensure safety.
How do I know if I need professional water extraction?

If there’s visible standing water or dampness that doesn’t dry quickly, professional water extraction is recommended. Prolonged exposure to moisture can lead to mould growth, wood rot and damage to flooring or walls. Even if water seems to have dried on the surface, hidden moisture can cause issues later, so it’s best to get a professional assessment.
