How Water Heater Flood Cleanup Works in Taunton

Carpet pad holds water like a sponge and often cannot be saved. Pulling it early is one of the best ways to keep mold from starting.

1. Extract the standing water

   The crew handles recovered water according to what it holds. Clean tank water goes to a proper drain, and anything contaminated is handled differently.

2. Map the moisture

   The map becomes the drying plan and the baseline for every daily reading. It also goes into the claim records.

3. 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.

4. 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.
