How Water Heater Flood Cleanup Works in Bristow
Mold removal is not part of the crew's work. The job is to remove the water and dry the structure quickly enough that mold never gets started.
-
Extract the standing water
A pump or truck-mounted unit pulls the deep water first. Wands then lift what is left from carpet, pad and low spots.
-
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
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.
