How Water Heater Flood Cleanup Works in Felts Mills
People with asthma, allergies or weak immune systems should stay out of a room that has been wet for days. Call the crew, and leave the soaked materials to the crew.
-
Extract the standing water
On a hard floor, the crew pushes and vacuums water toward a low spot. On carpet, it makes slow, overlapping passes with a weighted wand.
-
Map the moisture
Readings get compared with a dry reference in an unaffected room. That comparison decides which materials are wet and which are fine.
-
Open what holds water
The crew bags and removes wet debris so it does not feed humidity back into the room.
-
Dry and verify
Technicians return to take moisture readings and adjust equipment. Drying ends when the materials reach the dry reference.
