How Water Heater Flood Cleanup Works in Aliso Viejo
A musty smell a few days after a flood means moisture stayed somewhere. Moisture mapping finds those spots in a Aliso Viejo home before they grow into a bigger problem.
-
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.
-
Map the moisture
A moisture meter and a thermal camera show where water spread beyond the puddle. The technician marks wet walls and floors and records the readings.
-
Open what holds water
Hardwood and laminate may need drying mats or the removal of a few boards, depending on how deep the water went.
-
Dry and verify
Drying in Aliso Viejo usually takes several days, and thicker materials take longer. The readings, not a calendar, decide when it is done.
