How Water Heater Leak Water Cleanup Works in Seymour

1. Remove standing water

   Pumps clear deep water in a Seymour basement, followed by extractors for the thin layer left on floors.

2. Find absorbed moisture

   Pin and pinless meters show whether the Seymour floor still holds water below its finish.

3. Remove what cannot stay

   Soaked carpet pad may be lifted so the floor beneath it can dry.

   Daily readings show whether equipment placement should change as the loss dries.
