Water that remained in an empty home may have affected several rooms. The cleanup scope follows the measured damage, not just the first puddle.

1. Remove accessible standing water

2. Trace moisture through materials

   Moisture mapping records how far the thaw leak moved from the split.

3. Expose saturated hidden layers

   Wet ceiling material may require removal when it is sagging or holding water.

4. Dry and verify the structure
