How Frozen Pipe Leak Water Removal Works in Mc Grath

Dry-looking trim does not prove the cavity behind it is dry. Repeat readings show whether the drying plan is working.

1. Remove the pooled water

   Water gathered beneath an attic leak is removed before structural drying begins.

2. Trace damp materials

   A technician tests the subfloor where the puddle crossed flooring seams.

3. Expose trapped moisture

   The technician opens wet materials only where needed to reach retained water.

4. Verify the dry-out

   Repeat meter readings show whether affected wood and wallboard are losing moisture.
