When a water heater leaks, its repair or replacement belongs to the appliance trade. The cleanup crew handles standing water and soaked building materials.

How Flood Water Removal and Structural Drying Works in Clara

1. Remove the standing water

   Basement pump-out lowers the water so materials can be assessed.

2. Map the moisture

   Recorded measurements set a baseline for the dry-out.

3. Open what holds water

   Soaked padding can block drying of the floor beneath it.

4. Dry and verify

   Air movers and dehumidifiers work together while readings are repeated.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Drying progress is measured, not guessed from touch. Daily readings help show whether hidden moisture is falling.

• Leave wet electrical areas alone and avoid sealing walls or floors before moisture checks.
• Stop the water source from a safe dry location if possible.
• Keep children and pets away from any dirty or electrically unsafe water.
• Photograph the wet area and move small dry belongings out of its path.
• Call (888) 399-5795 for 24/7 flood water removal.
