Damage Restoration & Carpet Cleaning | ServiceMaster by Rice - Des Moines

For water-damaged carpets, we start with a thorough inspection and moisture mapping. We extract standing water, then use truck-mounted hot water extraction with eco-friendly cleaning agents. After cleaning, we set up high-velocity air movers and dehumidifiers to dry the carpet and padding completely, preventing mold and odors. If the carpet is salvageable, we can restore it; otherwise, we recommend replacement. We also offer protection treatments to help repel future stains.

Attic condensation is common in our humid climate. We begin by identifying the moisture source, such as inadequate ventilation or insulation. We contain the area to prevent spores from spreading, then remove affected materials like insulation or wood. We apply antimicrobial treatments and HEPA vacuum the entire space. Finally, we address the root cause by recommending improved attic ventilation or sealing air leaks to prevent recurrence.

Yes, we specialize in upholstery cleaning after water damage. We first assess the fabric type and water damage category. We extract excess water, then use low-moisture cleaning methods or steam cleaning depending on the fabric. We dry the upholstery quickly with air movers to prevent mold and shrinkage. We also deodorize and apply fabric protectants if desired. For delicate fabrics, we may recommend professional dry cleaning.
