Signs to look for
When to call us for upholstery extraction
We keep the field plan clear: If you notice any of these problems, call us before water has more time to spread into nearby materials.
The skirt or the base is dark and wicking upward
We keep the field plan clear: Fabric pulls water up out of the floor by wicking, which is why a piece can be soaked six inches up.
Color has transferred onto the carpet or between panels
For a prepared response, we focus on this: Dye bleed happens fast on wet fabric, especially on dark prints and velvet.
Yellow or tan marks are spreading on light fabric
Before equipment is placed, we consider this: That is browning, natural material in the fabric or the filling coming to the surface as it dries.
The frame flexes or creaks under normal weight
For a prepared response, we focus on this: A particleboard frame swells and loses its fasteners once it is wet.
The webbing under the seat is sagging
From the first assessment, we look at this: Wet webbing stretches under the weight of soaked foam and does not spring back.
What happens
How we handle upholstery extraction
Our response crew adjusts the work to the rooms and materials exposed to water, where the water reached, and the materials that can be saved.
Piece by piece triage against the water category
To keep the work focused, we start here: Clean supply water gives most furniture a real chance.
The frame assessment that decides everything
Our response crew uses a practical rule: A kiln dried hardwood frame with sound frame joinery is worth drying and commonly worth a lot.
Getting furniture up and off the wet floor
To keep the work focused, we start here: Every piece is blocked up on foam or plastic risers immediately.
Extraction with an upholstery tool
We keep the field plan clear: A hand held upholstery tool with a narrow slot pulls water from the fabric and the foam under it.
Cushions unzipped, extracted and dried separately
For your property, the useful point is this: Cushion covers come off where the construction allows so both faces of the foam get airflow.
Elevated drying on racks with directed airflow
Our field notes give this point special attention: Pieces go up on a drying rack so air reaches the underside, the deck and the frame.
