How Frozen Pipe Leak Water Removal Works in Strafford

The first visible stain may arrive after hours of concealed wetting. Call 24/7 so a technician can map moisture and begin the dry-out.

1. Remove the pooled water

   Standing water is drawn off first so it cannot keep feeding porous materials.

2. Trace damp materials

   Insulation and trim are evaluated where thaw water followed a hidden route.

3. Expose trapped moisture

   Wet wallboard that cannot dry in place is taken out before equipment runs.

4. Verify the dry-out

   Repeat meter readings show whether affected wood and wallboard are losing moisture.
