How Frozen Pipe Leak Water Removal Works in Lake

An attic spill can wet the ceiling from above. Assessing the insulation and framing helps prevent a missed damp pocket.

1. Remove the pooled water

   Standing water is drawn off first so it cannot keep feeding porous materials.

2. Trace damp materials

   A technician tests the subfloor where the puddle crossed flooring seams.

3. Expose trapped moisture

   Wet wallboard that cannot dry in place is taken out before equipment runs.

4. Verify the dry-out

   Dehumidifiers pull water from the air as air movers work across wet surfaces.
