How Water Line Break Cleanup Works in Hector

Moisture can migrate through trim and into wall cavities. Meter readings identify places where drying needs to continue.

1. Pump and extract the water

   A main break can fill a low area quickly. Pumps clear the bulk water while the crew watches for continued flow. Water depth and room layout determine where pumping begins.

2. Map moisture beyond the puddle

   Lower wall cavities are examined where water climbed. Recorded values mark the drying targets. Different materials call for different measurement methods.

3. Remove materials that hold dirty water

   A cabinet toe kick can block airflow to a wet cavity. Selective opening may be needed for access. The technician checks the newly exposed area before choosing equipment.

4. Dry and confirm with readings

   The final check covers subfloors, wall bases and other affected layers. The homeowner keeps the drying record. The homeowner receives a clearer picture of what remained wet and when it dried.
