How Frozen Pipe Power Outage Cleanup Works in Coatsburg

1. Remove accessible standing water

   For a crawl space loss, technicians check low areas where water collected beneath the home.

2. Trace moisture through materials

   Wall corners and baseboards are checked because water can wick upward.

3. Expose saturated hidden layers

   Material removal is documented before the drying equipment is positioned.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   Air movers and dehumidifiers work together while the crew tracks material readings.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

• Turn off the main water supply if it is safely accessible.
• Do not touch wet breakers, outlets or appliances.
• Have a plumber inspect the frozen plumbing.
• Keep away from sagging ceilings or soaked floors.
• Record when heat and water service returned.
