Jones Professional Carpet Installation and Repair | Carpet Cleaning & Damage Restoration in Des Moines, IA

The earliest signs include a musty smell, dampness underfoot, or visible water rings near baseboards. You may also notice the carpet pulling away from the tack strips or discoloration. If you recently had an ice dam or a water heater leak in your Des Moines home, check low-traffic areas like closets or corners—moisture can hide there for days. Catching these signs early can prevent mold growth and structural damage.

We start by extracting all standing water using commercial-grade pumps and vacuums. Then we dry the subfloor and padding with industrial air movers and dehumidifiers. If the carpet is salvageable, we clean and sanitize it to remove bacteria and odors. If the padding is ruined, we replace it and re-stretch the carpet. For homes near Beaverdale or the Drake neighborhood, we also check for hidden moisture in the walls to make sure the problem is fully resolved.

Yes, we install new carpet once the area is fully dry and the subfloor is sound. We carry a range of styles and fibers suitable for Des Moines homes, from durable nylon for busy families to plush options for quieter rooms. We also understand the stress of insurance claims—we can document the damage and provide detailed estimates that help streamline your claim process. Whether you’re near the Capitol or in the South of Grand neighborhood, we’ll work with you to get your floors back in shape.
