How Condo Water Heater Leak Water Damage Works in Mora
-
Pump out the standing water
Water that sits under a heater drains into low spots, door tracks and carpet edges. The crew chases it into each one with a wand and a pump.
-
Map where the water went
Baseline readings come from a dry spot in the same house. Every wet reading gets compared against that baseline.
-
Remove what cannot dry
Wet insulation holds water and loses its value. It comes out and gets replaced after the structure is dry.
-
Dry the structure and verify
Drying logs record the temperature, humidity and moisture readings for each visit. An adjuster can follow the job from the first photo to the last reading.
