How Water Line Break Cleanup Works in Mohawk

Moisture can migrate through trim and into wall cavities. Meter readings identify places where drying needs to continue.

1. Pump and extract the water

   Before drying starts, accessible liquid is removed. This reduces the load on dehumidifiers. Removing liquid promptly limits how much later drying must handle.

2. Map moisture beyond the puddle

   Meters trace dampness into baseboards and subfloors. The drying plan follows those readings. Comparison readings help distinguish damage from ordinary material variation.

3. Remove materials that hold dirty water

   A cabinet toe kick can block airflow to a wet cavity. Selective opening may be needed for access. The technician checks the newly exposed area before choosing equipment.

4. Dry and confirm with readings

   Wet framing can take longer than a floor surface. Recorded progress determines when finish work can begin. Progress notes show when framing reached its drying goal.
