Water Damage Repair


The key to dealing with any flood water is to remove standing water IMMEDIATELY. Whether this be on Hard floor surfaces, on Carpets or in floor void it is imperative that the visible water is removed. At Just Right Carpet Cleaning we use a rapid extraction, this will limit the amount of further damage and enhance the Drying process.

We use the most powerful extraction devices in THE WORLD!! The Truck mount is either mounted in a van or Trailer and can extract up to 240 gallons per hour!! With auto-pump out devices this allows continual working. The major benefits of the truck mount are that it is:

  • Petrol driven so does not require electricity
  • Remains outside and so does not affect indoor air quality still further
  • Allows multiple operators to reduce time.
  • Continual working with auto-pump out devices.

Water damage disasters can cause devastating damage in most instances. After removal of standing water the next stage of Damage Mitigation is to clean and sanitise all areas affected by flood waters. There are differing grades of Water types with escapes of water coming from clean water sources to contaminated sources such as Sewage. We will clean-up following a escape of water using thorough effective procedures and the latest in equipment and cleaning solutions. It is imperative that the Clean-up process is dealt with quickly!! If this process is delayed the contamination grade can change very quickly and such change the levels of works required.
