How Water Line Break Cleanup Works in Montandon

Water left under flooring can keep a subfloor damp after the room looks clear. Mold can start growing within 24 to 48 hours on wet material.

1. Pump and extract the water

   Standing water in a crawl space needs controlled pumping. Wet floor surfaces receive further extraction. The crew checks that the source has stopped before moving to drying equipment.

2. Map moisture beyond the puddle

   Concrete and wood respond differently to flooding. Moisture mapping identifies each affected material. The map shows where equipment should focus first.

3. Remove materials that hold dirty water

   A cabinet toe kick can block airflow to a wet cavity. Selective opening may be needed for access. The technician checks the newly exposed area before choosing equipment.

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.
