How Water Line Break Cleanup Works in Saybrook

-
Pump and extract the water
Before drying starts, accessible liquid is removed. This reduces the load on dehumidifiers. Removing liquid promptly limits how much later drying must handle.
-
Map moisture beyond the puddle
Concrete and wood respond differently to flooding. Moisture mapping identifies each affected material. The map shows where equipment should focus first.
-
Remove materials that hold dirty water
A cabinet toe kick can block airflow to a wet cavity. Selective opening may be needed for access. The technician checks the newly exposed area before choosing equipment.
-
Dry and confirm with readings
The crew compares current moisture with unaffected material. Drying ends after the affected layers reach the goal. The record explains why a surface was considered dry.
