How Frozen Pipe Water Damage Works in Sipsey

Dehumidifiers pull moisture from the air while air movers help wet surfaces release it. The crew tracks readings as drying progresses.

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

   Wall corners and baseboards are checked because water can wick upward.

3. Expose saturated hidden layers

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

4. Dry and verify the structure

   Equipment remains focused on materials that still show elevated moisture.
