How Water Heater Leak Flood Water Removal Works in Lorane

2. Map the moisture

   Hidden cavities are assessed where the water path suggests intrusion.

   Wet drywall sections may be removed to expose the cavity.

4. Dry and verify

   The crew records progress until affected materials meet the drying plan.

• Avoid water near electrical equipment.
• Keep children and pets clear.
• Move small belongings to dry ground if safe.
• Photograph the damage before moving items.
