How Water Heater Flood Cleanup Works in Walkerton

A musty smell a few days after a flood means moisture stayed somewhere. Moisture mapping finds those spots in a Walkerton home before they grow into a bigger problem.

1. 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.

2. Map the moisture

   The map becomes the drying plan and the baseline for every daily reading. It also goes into the claim records.

3. Open what holds water

   Soaked pad, insulation and drywall that cannot dry get cut out and bagged. Removing them early keeps the rest of the structure on track.

4. Dry and verify

   Drying in Walkerton usually takes several days, and thicker materials take longer. The readings, not a calendar, decide when it is done.
