The method depends on the floor and the water. Clean water in carpet calls for different tools than gray water on hardwood.

Large losses get a truck-mount, which pulls more water per pass and keeps the noisy machine outside.
Weighted tools press down on the carpet and draw water out of the pad underneath, which can save the carpet.
Specialized floor mats connected to high-pressure vacuum draw moisture up through the boards and the gaps between them, giving solid hardwood a real chance at survival.
Water category decides what stays. Clean water may only cost you the pad, while sewage or floodwater means the carpet goes too.

Clean water and fast extraction give carpet a good chance. Contaminated water means it should go.
