How Burst Pipe Flood Water Removal Works in Thorndike

1. Remove the standing water

   The crew isolates dirty water before clearing the affected area.

2. Map the moisture

   Meters show whether subfloors remain wet beyond the visible edge.

3. Open what holds water

   Cabinet toe kicks may need access so trapped moisture can escape.

4. Dry and verify

   Drying continues after the visible puddle disappears from the floor.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Air movement alone cannot dry a room with a large pool. Extraction comes first, followed by equipment and repeat moisture checks.

• Close the main water valve and avoid wet electrical fixtures.
• Avoid water near electrical equipment.
• Keep children and pets clear.
• Move small belongings to dry ground if safe.
• Photograph the damage before moving items.
