How Frozen Pipe Water Damage Works in Citronelle

Wet drywall continues to wick water above the visible stain. Early extraction reduces the moisture that can spread through a Citronelle wall.

1. Remove accessible standing water

   The extraction plan follows the visible flow path across each affected room.

2. Trace moisture through materials

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

3. Expose saturated hidden layers

   Soaked insulation may be removed to give framing a path to dry.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   Technicians compare affected areas with nearby dry materials to judge progress.
