Signs to look for

When to call us for padding removal

So the repair lasts, if you notice any of these problems, call us before water has more time to spread into nearby materials.

The cushion does not spring back when you press it

Before the finish work begins, press a spot with your thumb and watch what happens.

The floor feels mushy and does not spring back

With sound workmanship in mind, healthy cushion recovers under your foot. For a job done right, a pad that stays compressed has broken down internally and will never regain its pad thickness.

The room smells sour within a day or two

With sound workmanship in mind, odor almost always comes from the cushion as opposed to the carpet face. Before the finish work begins, once a pad smells, cleaning the carpet above it does nothing.

The water came from a toilet, from sewage or from outdoors

For a job done right, cushion is porous and cannot be cleaned in position, so that cushion is removed as opposed to dried.

You can see the pad pattern printed through the carpet

So the repair lasts, wet rebond pad transfers its color and its speckled pattern into the carpet backing.

The cushion crumbles when a corner is lifted

For a job done right, urethane foam that tears apart in your hand has lost its bond. So the repair lasts, it also leaves crumbs that end up in the carpet backing.

What happens

How we see to padding removal

Our workmanship team adjusts the work to what soaked up water, how far the water traveled, and which materials can be preserved.

A read of both layers before anything is detached

So the repair lasts, we meter the carpet, the cushion and the subfloor separately with a moisture meter. Before the finish work begins, that tells us whether only the pad is the problem or the deck calls for its own plan.

Contents moved and blocked off the floor

For a job done right, furniture comes off the working area and metal or wood feet get blocked.

Extraction before the tear out, not after

So the repair lasts, we pull as much water as possible out of the cushion first so it is not dripping across your house on the way out.

The carpet detached at the tack strip, not cut

With sound workmanship in mind, the carpet is signed off from one or two edges with a flat tool and folded back on itself.

Cushion cut into strips and bagged

With sound workmanship in mind, the pad gets cut in manageable strips, rolled, and bagged at the room so water and crumbs do not travel.

The deck cleaned and stapled flat

So the repair lasts, old staples, crumbs and pad residue are removed from the subfloor so the new cushion sits flat.

Understanding the cost

What can affect the price

So the repair lasts, we explain the recommended work and price before you approve the job. So the repair lasts, these examples show what may change the estimate.

Common situation	What the estimate may include	Typical range
Wet carpet padding removal and disposal, per square foot	For a job done right, national estimate covering removal, bagging and disposal of the cushion layer sitting on the deck.	$0.50 to $1.50
New carpet cushion supplied and installed, per square foot	With sound workmanship in mind, national estimate.	$0.60 to $1.50
Pad out and carpet relay for one room, all in	With sound workmanship in mind, national estimate for a typical bedroom sized room, covering tear out, disposal, new cushion, stretch and tuck.	$250 to $700
Whole floor pad replacement with carpet reinstalled, per square foot	Before the finish work begins, national estimate combining removal, disposal, new cushion and the flooring labor to relay and stretch the carpet.	$1.70 to $4.50
Tack strip replacement, per linear foot	For a job done right, national estimate for replacing rusted or split strip at the perimeter before the carpet goes back down.	$1 to $3
Debris haul away for one floor of wet cushion	National estimate. Wet pad is bulky and heavy, so disposal is priced by volume as opposed to by room.	$50 to $250

Square footage of cushion coming out
We measure the saturated section, which is more often than not smaller than the room. Cushion stops taking water at some point and dry pad stays down.
Pad type and what replaces it
So the repair lasts, bonded urethane foam is the common and inexpensive option.
Pad density and thickness
Density is measured in pounds per cubic foot and it is what you pay for.
Cushion glued down to a concrete slab
On slab construction the pad is often glued as opposed to stapled. Scraping cured adhesive off concrete is hand labor, and it adds hours to the same square footage.
Furniture and access
For a job done right, a room full of heavy contents adds labor before a single strip is cut.
Disposal volume
Before the finish work begins, wet cushion is bulky and heavy, and disposal is priced by volume.

Why timing matters

What can happen when the area stays wet

Before the finish work begins, water can keep moving into nearby materials even when the surface looks dry.

The cushion keeps the deck wet indefinitely

For a job done right, a saturated pad holds water directly against the subfloor with no airflow.

The odor is locked in a layer nobody can rinse

With sound workmanship in mind, soil settles inside the cushion, and a pad cannot be rinsed while it lies on your floor.

Pad crumbs and dye stain the carpet backing

For a job done right, wet rebond pad breaks down and transfers its color into the carpet above it.

Compression is permanent, so the floor feels dead

Before the finish work begins, cushion that stays flattened has lost its cell structure.

What is happening inside the property
