How Water Heater Flood Cleanup Works in Mc Intosh
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
Hoses and cords stay out of the wet zone and away from the heater, so the pump-out stays safe for everyone in the room.
-
Map the moisture
Tank water wicks up drywall and runs under baseboards. The scan follows those paths in the heater room and in the rooms next to it.
-
Open what holds water
Baseboards come off so wall bottoms can breathe. Small cuts in drywall let air reach wet insulation and studs.
-
Dry and verify
Drying in Mc Intosh usually takes several days, and thicker materials take longer. The readings, not a calendar, decide when it is done.
