Water behind cabinets may be missed by a quick surface wipe. The restoration team measures the backing and nearby floor before setting equipment.
-
Pump and extract the water
A technician removes pooled water from the lowest affected room. Extraction follows the path into adjacent space. Water that crossed a threshold may need a second extraction pass.
-
Map moisture beyond the puddle
A room may look dry from above while the pad beneath remains wet. Technicians check the layers. A nearby wall base can be wet even when the floor looks clean.
-
Remove materials that hold dirty water
Carpet padding can retain water against a subfloor. Technicians evaluate whether it can dry safely. The condition of the water helps decide how padding is handled.
-
Dry and confirm with readings
A basement needs controlled air and humidity after pumping. Technicians monitor the structure over the drying period. Humidity control helps reduce moisture movement into adjacent areas.
