How Water Line Break Cleanup Works in French Settlement

A wet carpet pad holds moisture against the floor. The crew removes accessible water and checks whether the pad can be dried.

1. Pump and extract the water

   Deep basement water is pumped first. The crew then extracts remaining surface moisture. A hose path and equipment position are chosen around safe access to the flooded area.

2. Map moisture beyond the puddle

   Hidden wetness can sit behind cabinets or trim. The assessor checks those edges before equipment placement. Water may travel behind a finish and emerge far from the entry point.

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

   Daily measurements reveal slow areas. Equipment can be shifted toward the last wet section. A technician checks the slowest material before removing equipment.
