How Water Heater Flood Cleanup Works in Selkirk
Wet drywall, pad and wood framing give mold what it needs. The crew pulls the materials that cannot dry and dries the rest before that window closes.
-
Extract the standing water
Extraction starts once the supply is off and the room is safe to enter. Every gallon pulled out early is less water for the walls to absorb.
-
Map the moisture
If the heater sits in an attic, the scan includes the ceiling and walls below. Water often travels farther down than it looks from above.
-
Open what holds water
Wet cabinet kicks and trim may need to come off so the cavity behind them can dry. The crew opens only what the readings call for.
-
Dry and verify
Air movers push dry air across wet surfaces, and LGR dehumidifiers pull vapor out of the room. The setup is sized to the wet area.
