How Water Heater Flood Cleanup Works in Kerens

A musty smell a few days after a flood means moisture stayed somewhere. Moisture mapping finds those spots in a Kerens home before they grow into a bigger problem.

1. Extract the standing water

   Hoses and cords stay out of the wet zone and away from the heater, so the pump-out stays safe for everyone in the room.

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

   The crew bags and removes wet debris so it does not feed humidity back into the room.

4. Dry and verify

   Equipment keeps running until the readings fall within the target range. Pulling it too soon leaves moisture that comes back as damage.
