How Water Heater Flood Cleanup Works in Wildwood
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
The crew handles recovered water according to what it holds. Clean tank water goes to a proper drain, and anything contaminated is handled differently.
-
Map the moisture
If the heater sits in an attic, the scan includes the ceiling and walls below. Water often travels farther down than it looks from above.
-
Open what holds water
Wet cabinet kicks and trim may need to come off so the cavity behind them can dry. The crew opens only what the readings call for.
-
Dry and verify
The crew watches temperature and humidity along with moisture content. Those numbers show whether drying is on track.
