How Frozen Pipe Water Damage Works in Port Royal

Dehumidifiers pull moisture from the air while air movers help wet surfaces release it. The crew tracks readings as drying progresses.

1. Remove accessible standing water

   The crew extracts pooled water from the Port Royal room before it reaches more flooring.

2. Trace moisture through materials

   Moisture mapping records how far the thaw leak moved from the split.

3. Expose saturated hidden layers

   A swollen baseboard can conceal a damp wall edge that needs access.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   Equipment remains focused on materials that still show elevated moisture.

Cleanup Records for an Insurance Claim
