Signs your Fort Lauderdale carpet needs water damaged carpet repair
The longer wet pad and tack strip stay under carpet, the more likely they need replacing. Proper re-installation is what gets the room back to normal after the drying is done.
Older Fort Lauderdale homes with aging plumbing and AC lines are where we see the most leak-related carpet work. For Fort Lauderdale rentals, re-installing carpet after a leak is often faster than replacing it between tenants. If a condo or HOA leak is involved in Fort Lauderdale, coordinate with your association and insurer first, then call us to re-install.
How we do it
Re-installing carpet after water damage means starting from the floor up: new tack strip where the old strip is damaged, new pad, then the carpet laid back down and power-stretched so it's tight and flat.
Fort Lauderdale homes and carpet
Fort Lauderdale's housing changes block by block. There are 1940s and '50s cottages in Sailboat Bend and Victoria Park, canal-front homes in Rio Vista, Coral Ridge and Harbor Beach, and high-rise condos along Las Olas, in Flagler Village and up Galt Ocean Mile. We repair carpet in all of them, from a single bedroom in a waterfront house to the hallways of a condo unit.
Many Fort Lauderdale condos have carpet over concrete in bedrooms, with tile or marble in the living areas, so the carpet-to-stone transitions get heavy wear. Older single-family homes near downtown were often re-carpeted over the decades, and stretched carpet can loosen when tack strip in an old slab doesn't hold.
Local tip: Fort Lauderdale high-rises usually require contractors to reserve the service elevator and work set hours. Tell us your building's rules when you book and we'll schedule around them.

Common questions
Can wet carpet be saved?
Often the carpet itself can be re-installed once dry, while the pad and tack strip are replaced. We'll look at it on site.
Will my carpet ripple after it dries?
Wet carpet often loosens, which is why we power-stretch it during re-installation.
