How Water Line Break Cleanup Works in Cincinnatus

A crawl space flood may wet framing overhead. Drying the air without checking joists can leave concealed moisture.

1. Pump and extract the water

   Standing water in a crawl space needs controlled pumping. Wet floor surfaces receive further extraction. The crew checks that the source has stopped before moving to drying equipment.

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

   A wet wall cavity may require opening to expose framing. The crew records what is taken out. Open sections let air reach framing that a finished wall would conceal.

4. Dry and confirm with readings

   Daily measurements reveal slow areas. Equipment can be shifted toward the last wet section. A technician checks the slowest material before removing equipment.
