How Water Line Break Cleanup Works in Ceres

Soil-contaminated water calls for careful material handling. Porous materials that cannot be cleaned may need removal before drying continues.

1. Pump and extract the water

   A technician removes pooled water from the lowest affected room. Extraction follows the path into adjacent space. Water that crossed a threshold may need a second extraction pass.

2. Map moisture beyond the puddle

   A room may look dry from above while the pad beneath remains wet. Technicians check the layers. A nearby wall base can be wet even when the floor looks clean.

3. Remove materials that hold dirty water

   Carpet padding can retain water against a subfloor. Technicians evaluate whether it can dry safely. The condition of the water helps decide how padding is handled.

4. Dry and confirm with readings

   Air movers and dehumidifiers pull moisture from exposed materials. Final readings show whether the target is met. Final readings can support the next contractor work on floors and walls.
