Remove the escaped heating water
When water reaches carpet, the technician checks the padding beneath it. Extraction targets wet layers, not only the visible surface.
-
Trace moisture through nearby materials
Finished basement walls may wick water upward from the floor. Measurements along the wall base reveal the affected height.
-
Open only materials that hold water
Porous material affected by heavily contaminated water is handled differently from a clean surface spill. The restoration team assesses category first.
-
Run equipment and verify drying
Wood subfloor and drywall dry at different rates. The restoration team follows each material toward its own drying goal.
