How Water Heater Flood Cleanup Works in Ocheyedan

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

1. Extract the standing water

   Extraction starts once the supply is off and the room is safe to enter. Every gallon pulled out early is less water for the walls to absorb.

2. Map the moisture

   Tank water wicks up drywall and runs under baseboards. The scan follows those paths in the heater room and in the rooms next to it.

3. Open what holds water

   Opening a wall sounds drastic, but a wet cavity that stays closed holds water for days. The crew makes the smallest opening that does the job.

4. Dry and verify

   Final readings and the equipment log go into the job file, and the homeowner gets copies for the claim.
