How Water Heater Flood Cleanup Works in Old Saybrook

Mold removal is not part of the crew's work. The job is to remove the water and dry the structure quickly enough that mold never gets started.

1. Extract the standing water

   A pump or truck-mounted unit pulls the deep water first. Wands then lift what is left from carpet, pad and low spots.

2. Map the moisture

   Readings get compared with a dry reference in an unaffected room. That comparison decides which materials are wet and which are fine.

3. Open what holds water

   The crew bags and removes wet debris so it does not feed humidity back into the room.

4. Dry and verify

   Technicians return to take moisture readings and adjust equipment. Drying ends when the materials reach the dry reference.
