A main break can soak multiple rooms before the valve closes. Early water removal reduces continued absorption, and daily readings show whether drying stays on track. Technicians revisit corners and floor transitions because water can collect there after the main puddle is extracted.

1. Remove Standing Water

   The team documents the initial water depth where possible. Pumping and extraction prepare the structure for the next drying phase.

3. Remove Materials That Hold Water

   Waterlogged drywall at the bottom of a wall may need selective opening. The team documents the removal before work proceeds.

4. Dry and Verify the Structure

   Structural drying targets framing and subfloors as well as visible surfaces. The team records final readings for the claim file.
