Roto-Pat, Inc: Carpet Cleaning & Damage Restoration in Myrtle Beach, SC

The first signs often include a foul odor, slow drains, or gurgling sounds from toilets. You might also see water pooling around floor drains or in the lowest areas of your home, like a basement or garage. In Myrtle Beach, heavy rains can overwhelm city sewers, so if you notice these signs after a storm, call Roto-Pat, Inc immediately. We’ll assess the damage, extract the water, and sanitize the area to prevent health risks.

Snowmelt water damage in Myrtle Beach is rare but can happen during a freeze-thaw cycle. Water can seep into drywall, causing bubbling, peeling paint, or soft spots. Our solution is to first locate and stop the water source, then use industrial dehumidifiers and air movers to dry the wall cavity. If the drywall is saturated, we cut it out and replace it, matching the texture and paint to your existing walls. We work quickly to prevent mold growth, which is a common issue in our humid climate.

It depends on the water type. If the garage water intrusion is from clean rainwater or a burst pipe, we can often clean and restore carpets using hot water extraction and antimicrobial treatments. However, if the water is from a sewage backup or contains chemicals, replacement may be safer. We’ll test the water quality and inspect the carpet padding. For homes near the Myrtle Beach Boardwalk, where garage flooding from heavy rain is common, we always recommend a professional assessment to ensure no bacteria or mold is left behind.
