- Lift lightweight belongings from the wet floor.
- Photograph the wet patch and affected furniture.
- Avoid running a household vacuum on wet carpet.

Can wet carpet be dried over concrete?
Some carpet can be dried after extraction, but the pad and backing must also be evaluated. A crew measures the layers below the visible pile. Dirty water or prolonged saturation may require material removal.
