How Frozen Pipe Water Damage Works in Alhambra

1. Remove accessible standing water

   A vacant property can hold water in several places, so crews work through the full wet footprint.

2. Trace moisture through materials

   Adjacent rooms are assessed when water has crossed a doorway or cavity.

3. Expose saturated hidden layers

   The crew assesses whether floor covering can dry in place or must be lifted.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   Daily measurements show whether the wet layer is releasing moisture.
