Damage Restoration & Carpet Cleaning in Spokane | A Absolute Restoration

Mold thrives in moist environments, which often result from water damage like garage intrusions or crawl space moisture. In Spokane, seasonal rains and snowmelt can lead to hidden dampness in walls, floors, and basements. Without prompt drying, mold can start growing within 24–48 hours. Our damage restoration team uses moisture meters and infrared cameras to detect hidden wet spots and dry them thoroughly, preventing mold from taking hold.

Signs of wet insulation include a musty odor, visible water stains, sagging or compressed insulation, and increased energy bills (since wet insulation loses R-value). You might also notice mold growth or higher humidity in your home. If you suspect moisture in your crawl space, call A Absolute Restoration for an inspection. We can test insulation, remove and replace it if needed, and address the water source to prevent recurrence.

After water damage, carpet should be cleaned and dried quickly to avoid mold and bacteria. We use hot water extraction (steam cleaning) with anti-microbial treatments to sanitize and deep-clean carpets. For heavily soaked carpets, we may need to remove them for proper drying. Our process includes extraction, drying with air movers and dehumidifiers, then a final cleaning to restore freshness. We also treat the padding if salvageable, or recommend replacement if damaged beyond repair.
