How Frozen Pipe Burst Water Damage Works in Kenney

1. Water Damage Extraction: Remove Accessible Liquid

   The extraction specialist selects a pump or recovery tool for the water depth. Removing pooled liquid reduces the amount left for evaporation.

2. Water Damage Mapping: Measure the Spread

   A moisture technician tests beyond the visible stain. Measurements establish which adjacent materials require attention.

3. Water Damage Access: Expose Trapped Moisture

   A ceiling specialist evaluates sagging sections from a safe position. Occupants avoid the space beneath any unstable overhead material.

4. Water Damage Drying: Verify Each Material

   Air movement encourages evaporation while dehumidification controls indoor moisture. The drying specialist adjusts both as conditions change.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Wet drywall can wick moisture up above the visible puddle. Early extraction leaves less water to climb, while dehumidification handles the dampness that remains.

• Residents should close an accessible supply valve from a dry, safe position.
• Occupants should avoid wet electrical equipment and affected circuits.
• Owners should leave concealed pipe thawing to a plumber.
• Residents should avoid torches or other open flames near plumbing.
• Owners can record when the heat failed and when dripping began.
