Carpet Re-Installation, Padding Replacement In Cincinnati Ohio, Northern Kentucky

Water damage can ruin your carpet fast — but replacement isn’t always necessary. After a leak, flood, pipe burst, or appliance overflow, the biggest problem usually isn’t the carpet itself… it’s the soaked padding underneath. Wet padding traps moisture, odors, bacteria, and mold, which can lead to musty smells, unhealthy air, and permanent damage if not handled properly.

At Compass Carpet Repair, we provide professional carpet re-installation and padding replacement specifically for water-damaged floors. Our process removes contaminated padding, thoroughly dries and treats the subfloor, and then reinstalls your existing carpet using fresh, clean padding and proper power stretching. The result is a tight, smooth, odor-free carpet that feels like new again — without the high cost of full replacement.

Why Water-Damaged Padding Must Be Replaced.

Once padding gets wet, it rarely dries correctly. Even if the surface feels dry, moisture can stay trapped underneath and cause:

• Mold and mildew growth

• Lingering musty odors

• Bacteria buildup

• Stains wicking back to the surface

• Carpet loosening and wrinkles

• Premature wear and breakdown

Simply drying the top of the carpet isn’t enough. Replacing the pad is the only safe, long-term solution.
