How Water Line Break Cleanup Works in New London

A crawl space flood may wet framing overhead. Drying the air without checking joists can leave concealed moisture.

1. Pump and extract the water

   Deep basement water is pumped first. The crew then extracts remaining surface moisture. A hose path and equipment position are chosen around safe access to the flooded area.

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 wet wall cavity may require opening to expose framing. The crew records what is taken out. Open sections let air reach framing that a finished wall would conceal.

4. Dry and confirm with readings

   Wet framing can take longer than a floor surface. Recorded progress determines when finish work can begin. Progress notes show when framing reached its drying goal.
