How Water Heater Flood Cleanup Works in Claiborne

Mold can start growing within 24 to 48 hours on wet materials, according to the EPA. A heater flood soaks drywall and pad fast, so the clock starts the moment the tank fails.

1. Extract the standing water

   A pump or truck-mounted unit pulls the deep water first. Wands then lift what is left from carpet, pad and low spots.

2. Map the moisture

   Pin and pinless meters check different depths. The crew uses both on flooring, framing and drywall, then sketches the results.

3. 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.

4. Dry and verify

   The crew watches temperature and humidity along with moisture content. Those numbers show whether drying is on track.
