How Water Line Break Flooding Cleanup Works in Castroville

2. Map Concealed Moisture

   A basement flood can wick into lower drywall. The crew compares affected readings with dry reference areas.

3. Remove Materials That Hold Water

   Waterlogged drywall at the bottom of a wall may need selective opening. The team documents the removal before work proceeds.

4. Dry and Verify the Structure

   Air movers and dehumidifiers address moisture remaining after extraction. Daily readings show whether materials are moving toward the drying goal.
