How Water Heater Flood Cleanup Works in Saegertown
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.

-
Map the moisture
Pin and pinless meters check different depths. The crew uses both on flooring, framing and drywall, then sketches the results.

Open what holds water
Hardwood and laminate may need drying mats or the removal of a few boards, depending on how deep the water went.

Dry and verify
Final readings and the equipment log go into the job file, and the homeowner gets copies for the claim.
