How Water Line Break Cleanup Works in Lugoff

A wet carpet pad holds moisture against the floor. The crew removes accessible water and checks whether the pad can be dried.

1. Pump and extract the water

   A main break can fill a low area quickly. Pumps clear the bulk water while the crew watches for continued flow. Water depth and room layout determine where pumping begins.

2. Map moisture beyond the puddle

   A room may look dry from above while the pad beneath remains wet. Technicians check the layers. A nearby wall base can be wet even when the floor looks clean.

3. Remove materials that hold dirty water

   Insulation in a flooded crawl space may stay saturated. Removing affected sections allows joists to dry. Drying the wood below may require access beyond the visible opening.

4. Dry and confirm with readings

   The crew compares current moisture with unaffected material. Drying ends after the affected layers reach the goal. The record explains why a surface was considered dry.
