Water Damaged Carpet

July 20, 2023 at 1:27 am

With all of the rain in Denver recently many people had basement flooding and water damaged carpeting. You may be wondering if water-damaged carpet can be dried out and will it still be good?

If the water that soaked your carpet was clean then you may be able to save it.  You can also call a disaster company if they can make it out within 24 hours as they have professional equipment to remove the water.  You may be able to rent equipment to remove the water as well.

If you are trying to salvage the carpet than the best thing to do is pull back the carpet nicely and dispose of the pad, get fans on the back of the carpet and the subfloor. If you leave the pad down, and or the carpet, mold will have a chance to grow easier.  Pad is relatively inexpensive so disposing of it is a better option, often times pad acts like a sponge and difficult to dry out.  Another way to determine if the carpet is salvable is when you roll the carpet back to remove the pad, you can look at the back of the carpet and see if there is any delamination on it.  If you see portions of the back have delamination, there is a good chance that you will need to get new carpet.

Mold will start growing within 24 hours so you need to move quickly.  You may be able to salvage the carpet for a few days after the flooding but it depends on if you smell mold and mildew. If the water was dirty you will most likely need to tear out the carpet and padding and replace it.

Steps to dry your water soaked carpet

  1. Stop the water leak
  2. Remove the water from the carpet and padding

Begin extracting the water that has soaked the carpet. A shop vacuum and submersible pump can effectively remove water from your carpet if it is saturated entirely with water. Your local rental or hardware store should have a submersible pump and a shop vacuum.

  1. Absorbent towels

After getting as much water up as possible, place and push down absorbent towels on the carper. Towels will aid in absorbing any residual water on the carpet.

  1. Baking soda

Sprinkle lots of baking soda over your damp carpet and let it sit for at least half an hour. Then vacuum it up.

  1. Fans and dehumidifier

Place dehumidifiers and fans in the room to create air circulation and evaporation. This will speed up the drying process and help prevent mold.  It is best to rotate the fans every few hours. If possible, lift the carpeting off the floor and place fans above and below it. It will speed up the drying process and increase the likelihood of salvaging the carpet padding and subflooring.

  1. Clean and Shampoo

A carpet cleaner / sanitizer will help. Cleaning and sanitizing your carpet with a wash or live enzyme solutions before drying is a good idea. Using high-powered sanitizers and shampoo to dry your carpet can restore it to its natural state.  You may want to hire a professional provided they can come out right away.

  1. Replace carpet padding

Drying your carpet may not be enough to prevent water damage. Your carpet padding can get damaged by water. If the padding underneath the carpet is not dried properly mold can grow and spread all around the carpet.

  1. Remove the damaged carpet

The damage caused by water may not be widespread.  You may be able to take out the damaged section and replace it. Ideally, it would be best to cut around the damaged area. Cutting out a replacement piece that fits precisely into the cut-off is important. You may need to have the carpet sewn or fixed in place if it is moveable. If it’s already in place, you may secure it using carpet tape.

If you need to replace your carpet then give us a call to set up a free in-home appointment with our trained professionals. We help you through every step of the process for carpet from selecting colors and fabrics, to providing the installation.  We provide a no pressure process and work with you to get the best carpet for your budget and lifestyle.

Carpet Installation Reviews in Denver

December 27, 2022 at 2:43 am

Looking to have new carpet installed in your home?  The first step is going to be deciding on the type and style of carpeting you want and make sure that it matches your home’s décor.  How do you decide on where to shop for new carpeting and what type of carpet will suit your home and lifestyle. Do you have kids or pets?  Do you want to have an elegant stair runner installed? Do you prefer to have luxury vinyl tile installed in certain rooms?   There are many things to consider including having a company that will do a great job installing your carpet or luxury vinyl tile.  If there is a problem with the install for any reason will they come back and fix the problem?  If they use subcontractors for the install then this could be a problem.  Many company’s use subs including the big box stores.

Google Reviews for Coventry

I was looking to have carpet installed in my new home. I found Coventry Carpets via a Google search and because of their great reviews I decided to reach out to them, as I had just gotten a quote from another carpet installer, whose price seemed much too high. Scot responded immediately and he was able to come to my new place within just a few days and brought tons of carpet samples with him. I told him I was interested in the carpet that the other company had quoted me and Scot not only explained the difference between nylon and polyester (I probably just got that wrong) carpet but also quoted me $1000 LESS than the other company had quoted me for the same carpet. Scot only wanted to provide me with what I was interested in – no upselling, no pressure, he just genuinely wanted a happy customer. Once I decided on the carpet, he gave me a quote immediately and Jean contacted me the next day to schedule my install. They were able to install the carpet on the day I needed and the 2-man crew was fantastic, and fast!  They removed the old carpet and had the new carpet completely installed in less than 3 hours! And the workmanship is awesome! I absolutely love the color and feel of the carpet and couldn’t be happier! I have already recommended this company to friends and family and should I ever move again or decide to finish my basement, they will absolutely be the first ones I call. On a side note, Jean was absolutely lovely to work with!

We had an outstanding experience with Coventry Carpets and one of its owners, Scot. Coventry installed a new carpet in our home in Feb 2021. We had Scot come to our house to take measurements and see the installation area, rather than visit the showroom. He was able to schedule us in a matter of days and brought many samples to look at.

Scot explained the pros/cons of different carpet materials, piles and cuts, warranties, and the benefits of different types and thickness of carpet pads. We narrowed our choices quickly and settled on a mid-pile carpet and upgraded pad that were installed two weeks later. The carpet is beautiful to look at, soft to the touch, and dampens sound; no longer can you hear someone walking around upstairs.

The installation crew was fantastic – expert carpet installation, no damage to furniture, doors or walls, polite and conscientious about cleaning up and taking COVID precautions when in the house. They checked in with us a few times about the installation to confirm we were happy with the progress.

We had such a great experience with Coventry Carpets. Convenient, organized, respectful, and quality are just a few words I can use to describe this company. From the first visit, there were samples on site that we saw and we immediately liked so we placed our order the same day. When it came time to schedule the installation, it was an easy process that was explained well. Fuhrman (not sure if I spelled that correctly) did an amazing job installing. In fact, there were three other people doing work on our house that day and got their cards because it looked that great. A carpet pad was installed on each of the stairs which has made for a nice cushion as we walk up the stairs, not to mention, so much more quiet (we have two large dogs that trample up and down the stairs). We couldn’t be happier with the look of our stairs, thank you Coventry!

In our experience shopping for carpet, we found that installers are usually subcontractors, and at several companies, we would have to pay the installers separately from the carpet purchase. We were concerned that if the installation didn’t go well, it might be difficult to get the carpet company to work with us on a resolution, since they don’t employ the installers. I brought up this issue with Scot, who explained that although Coventry does work with subs, many of them have worked with Coventry for a long time. He assured us that Coventry would do whatever was necessary to ensure we were fully satisfied with the carpet installation. As it turned out , the installation went perfectly so we didn’t need to fall back on Scot’s promise, but it’s an important issue to consider when making an expensive investment like new carpet. Start to finish, we had an excellent experience with Coventry Carpet, highly recommend!

Coventry Carpets did an amazing job on both of our carpet runners!  They installed the carpet in our house 5 years ago and we called on them again for carpet runners on our stairs. They look amazing!  The installers were friendly, prompt and professional. They also got both sets of stairs done in one day (it was supposed to take two). I would highly recommend them!

We love our new stair runner! The entire team at Coventry was such a delight to work with, from appointment setting to installation. We were able to keep our modern look and the dogs could not be any happier. Thank you for the options, the service, the professionalism, and the follow-up!

Carpet Prices with Inflation

August 23, 2022 at 3:37 am

The price of Carpet has increased this year along with everything else.  Inflation and the supply chain are affecting the price of carpet.   The price of oil, a key part of modern carpet making, has jumped and manufacturers are absorbing much of this increase.   The good news is that the actual cost of carpet has only increased by about 10% and people don’t replace carpet every year so at least it is a onetime thing.

Carpet is still a great value compared to most other flooring as most of it is manufactured in the US and the supply chain has not affected it too much.  Some types of carpet like wool can take months to get as the supply chain for wool has increased.

Whether you want to give your home a fresh new look or you want a durable flooring option for your new home or office, carpet makes an excellent choice. It offers warmth and a comfortable plushness that’s truly unmatched by other flooring options.

Carpet for Home Office

Coventry Carpets has been a Stairmaster Carpet dealer for years. 

November 7, 2021 at 1:51 am

Recently Lowe’s bought the “Stainnmaster” name, however they did not buy the formula… thus, starting in the fall of 2021, we still continue to sell the Stainmaster fiber, but it will be labeled under the manufacturer name, rather than the previous Stainmaster name…many of the previous Stainmaster named carpets are still available, under the new brand label. Here are some of our more popular brands that we carry: Tuftex, Shaw, Dixie, Masland, Fabrica and Stanton.  These companies all make carpet with Stain protectants and other options such as extra soft carpet or carpet for high traffic locations that are more durable.   Our experts can help you decide what type of carpet is right for your situation and budget.

As always we provide a FREE in home consultation which includes measurements and pricing.  Our mobile showroom has all types of residential carpet samples in order to match your home’s decor, or you can come into our showroom, with an appointment, to get ideas for your carpet installation project.  Many of our clients like luxury vinyl tile for some of their rooms and we have samples of LVT as well.  We provide carpet installation that is guaranteed for life. If you have any issues give us a call and we will come out and fix any problems.  We aim to make our clients happy and have built our business upon referrals from happy customers.
