How Water Heater Flood Cleanup Works in Rickman
Mold removal is not part of the crew's work. The job is to remove the water and dry the structure quickly enough that mold never gets started.
-
Extract the standing water
A pump or truck-mounted unit pulls the deep water first. Wands then lift what is left from carpet, pad and low spots.
-
Map the moisture
Readings get compared with a dry reference in an unaffected room. That comparison decides which materials are wet and which are fine.
-
Open what holds water
The crew bags and removes wet debris so it does not feed humidity back into the room.
-
Dry and verify
Equipment keeps running until the readings fall within the target range. Pulling it too soon leaves moisture that comes back as damage.
