Black Gold Carpet Cleaning provides professional water damage restoration in Melbourne, offering fast extraction, drying and sanitisation to remove excess water, prevent mould and restore carpets, rugs and upholstery to a clean, safe condition. Our expert team responds quickly to minimise damage and health risks.
Whether it is storm damage, flood, washing machine leakage, or just about any water damage to your carpets, Black Gold Water Damage Restoration Melbourne can help. Calling a professional as soon as possible is very important. Mould can start to grow within 24 hours if not treated. Mould spores are a major health hazard for you and your family and should not be left untreated.
You can call our technicians anytime as we are available 24/7 for emergency call outs in Melbourne. We can extract dirt and water, remove underlay if necessary and treat your carpets. Treatment is imperative to prevent mould, mildew and other bacteria from harming you and your family. Where necessary we can also provide air blowers to help speed up the drying time.
The first thing to do when your washing machine overflows (after you have turned off the water flow) is to call Black Gold Carpet Cleaning, 0403 254 080, so we can arrange to visit your premises as soon as possible.
While you are waiting for us, try to soak up as much of the water as possible using towels. DO NOT step on the towels or walk on the wet area as this will force the water down into the underlay and floor beneath and cause more extensive damage. Remember to replace towels with dry ones as they become soaked. Also try to ensure there is good ventilation by opening a window and positioning a fan on the opposite side of the wet carpet.
Once we arrive we will assess the damage and provided the underlay has not been badly affected, we will extract the water and spray the carpet with an antimicrobial to prevent mold and a solution to prevent the carpet from turning brown.
No not always. If the water damage is not too severe and the water is clean i.e. not classified as black water (contaminated water from sewerage) then usually it can be cleaned and dries successfully. However once carpet has been wet for an extended period and mould grows, then the carpet will need to be replaced.
We can clean carpet affected by mould, however as carpet is very porous, it is difficult to completely eliminate mould spores and we would recommend replacing the carpet rather than cleaning it, as mould is potentially life threatening to some people and pets.
