How Water Line Break Flooding Cleanup Works in Wayne

A carpet can feel nearly dry while its pad remains wet. The restoration crew checks each layer and removes material that cannot dry safely. The pad and carpet are assessed separately so a dry surface does not conceal water against the subfloor.

   Saturated insulation may block drying in a wall cavity. The crew removes material that cannot dry safely.
