Why Does My Carpet Smell?

Why Does My Carpet Smell?

Whether from a dripping towel, a spilled cup, or condensation dripping off of a water pipe, if your carpets get wet and are not dried quickly, they may start to smell. If the water and moisture in the carpet are not able to evaporate quickly and dry out, then it may become musty and smelly. The musty smell from your carpet is a strong indicator that mold or mildew is growing within it. If it is not treated, it can lead to premature decay and deterioration of your carpet and sub floor.
