How Vacant Home Frozen Pipe Cleanup Works in Sewell

1. Remove accessible standing water

   The crew extracts pooled water from the Sewell room before it reaches more flooring.

2. Trace moisture through materials

   Floor finishes may cover wet underlayment, so the crew checks below the surface.

3. Expose saturated hidden layers

   Soaked insulation may be removed to give framing a path to dry.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   A drying plan changes when readings reveal a pocket of trapped water.
