How Burst Pipe Flood Cleanup Works in Laurel

1. Remove standing water

   After safety hazards are addressed, extraction reduces water sitting indoors. The remaining wet layers are assessed afterward.

2. Map moisture

   The crew measures porous materials before deciding what can remain. The water category affects material decisions.

3. Remove soaked material

   Contaminated porous materials are separated from salvageable finishes. The loss source informs contamination handling.

4. Dry and verify

   Drying continues until measured targets are reached. The crew checks the target material itself.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

• Close the main water valve if safe.
• Stay out of water near electrical equipment.
• Move dry belongings away from the wet area if safe.
