How Water Line Break Cleanup Works in Donaldsonville

-
Pump and extract the water

-

-
Remove materials that hold dirty water
A wet wall cavity may require opening to expose framing. The crew records what is taken out. Open sections let air reach framing that a finished wall would conceal.
-
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.
