An amateur water restoration carpet cleaner may fill the job up with extra steps. E.g. using dehumidification for drying the damaged carpets unnecessarily. Not having the correct equipment. They might use equipment from hire companies for the carpet. This is permissible, but an established water damage professional will possess all their equipment to enable a speedy response and hopefully a better value job. The right moisture metre. If they don't have the right moisture meter, they will not be able to see if the carpet is repaired. This furthers the danger of mould growth in the future.
