Residential Building Needs Water Damage Restoration in Amarillo

There are a number of reasons why carpet may need to be removed from a stairwell - mold growth, water soaked carpet, carpet stains and discoloration, or perhaps even just a change of pace.  In the picture seen above, stains from a water leak from the second floor caused water to stream down the stair steps, causing damage to and underneath the carpeting. When water after a home flood is left alone, this can cause rotting and other issues with the wood underneath the carpet.

When a situation like this occurs, stair carpeting must be removed from the scene. Carpeted stairs consist of the following: a carpet pad, tack strips, tread, nosing, riser, and carpet. Before going to work on removing any type of carpeting, it is important to understand the different parts before getting to work on removal and re-carpeting.
