How Frozen Pipe Leak Water Removal Works in Rio

Wallboard can hold water behind intact paint. Moisture readings reveal the hidden dampness before it lingers in a closed cavity.

1. Remove the pooled water

   The technician uses floor extraction equipment on reachable wet surfaces after the source stops.

2. Trace damp materials

   Readings at the ceiling and framing show whether an attic leak moved outward.

3. Expose trapped moisture

   Saturated insulation may be removed when it blocks drying of the cavity.

4. Verify the dry-out

   Dehumidifiers pull water from the air as air movers work across wet surfaces.
