How Water Heater Flood Cleanup Works in Orrum
Mold can grow behind baseboards and inside wall cavities where no one can see it. That is why the crew trusts a moisture meter and a thermal camera over the surface.
-
Extract the standing water
On a hard floor, the crew pushes and vacuums water toward a low spot. On carpet, it makes slow, overlapping passes with a weighted wand.
-
Map the moisture
The map becomes the drying plan and the baseline for every daily reading. It also goes into the claim records.
-
Open what holds water
Opening a wall sounds drastic, but a wet cavity that stays closed holds water for days. The crew makes the smallest opening that does the job.
-
Dry and verify
Drying in Orrum usually takes several days, and thicker materials take longer. The readings, not a calendar, decide when it is done.
