How Water Heater Flood Cleanup Works in Keatchie

Carpet pad holds water like a sponge and often cannot be saved. Pulling it early is one of the best ways to keep mold from starting.

1. Extract the standing water

   The operator checks depth, sets the intake and runs hoses to a proper discharge point. The goal is to get the bulk of the tank water out of the building first.

2. Map the moisture

   A moisture meter and a thermal camera show where water spread beyond the puddle. The technician marks wet walls and floors and records the readings.

3. Open what holds water

   Baseboards come off so wall bottoms can breathe. Small cuts in drywall let air reach wet insulation and studs.

4. Dry and verify

   Air movers push dry air across wet surfaces, and LGR dehumidifiers pull vapor out of the room. The setup is sized to the wet area.
