How Frozen Pipe Leak Water Removal Works in Gem

The first visible stain may arrive after hours of concealed wetting. Call 24/7 so a technician can map moisture and begin the dry-out.

1. Remove the pooled water

   Standing water is drawn off first so it cannot keep feeding porous materials.

2. Trace damp materials

   Wall cavities beside a split pipe are checked for absorbed water.

3. Expose trapped moisture

   Saturated insulation may be removed when it blocks drying of the cavity.

4. Verify the dry-out

   Dehumidifiers pull water from the air as air movers work across wet surfaces.
