How Frozen Pipe Water Damage Works in Gordo

An attic ceiling can trap water over insulation. A crew checks whether that material can dry or needs removal to expose the framing.

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

   Floor finishes may cover wet underlayment, so the crew checks below the surface.

3. Expose saturated hidden layers

   The crew assesses whether floor covering can dry in place or must be lifted.

4. Dry and verify the structure

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