Connecticut storms can bring sudden flooding, roof leaks, or basement water intrusion, and wet carpet left untreated for more than 24 to 48 hours becomes a serious risk for mold and lingering odor in New Canaan homes.
What to Do Right After Water Damage
- Remove standing water as quickly as possible
- Increase airflow with fans and dehumidifiers
- Lift furniture legs off wet carpet to prevent staining and rust marks
- Avoid walking heavily on saturated carpet, which pushes water deeper into the padding
