Can my carpet really be saved?
Often yes, depending on three things: the water category, how long it sat wet, and the carpet quality. Clean water that's been wet less than 48 hours, on a healthy carpet, almost always saves. Gray water beyond 48 hours, low-quality carpet, or any sewage exposure tilts toward replacement. We'll be straight with you on which case you're in.
Why does the pad have to come out?
The pad is essentially a sponge. Once it's saturated past a certain point, you can't extract enough water out of it to dry without trapping moisture against the subfloor. It's also cheap, $0.50-$1.00/sq ft for fresh pad, so the math works out for almost every Cat 2 loss.
