Yes, a wet carpet from clean water damage can often be saved if you act quickly. Start by extracting as much water as possible with a wet vacuum, then use fans and dehumidifiers to dry the area thoroughly within 24-48 hours to prevent mold. Lift the carpet to dry the padding and subfloor separately. While salvaging is possible, remember that the padding may need replacement, and professional cleaning can help remove any lingering moisture or bacteria.
