How Water Line Break Cleanup Works in Potlatch

A wet carpet pad holds moisture against the floor. The crew removes accessible water and checks whether the pad can be dried.

1. Pump and extract the water

   A technician removes pooled water from the lowest affected room. Extraction follows the path into adjacent space. Water that crossed a threshold may need a second extraction pass.

2. Map moisture beyond the puddle

   Concrete and wood respond differently to flooding. Moisture mapping identifies each affected material. The map shows where equipment should focus first.

3. Remove materials that hold dirty water

   Contaminated drywall cannot simply be covered with new paint. Material handling follows the assessed water condition. A clean surface does not make saturated porous backing safe to keep.

4. Dry and confirm with readings

   Wet framing can take longer than a floor surface. Recorded progress determines when finish work can begin. Progress notes show when framing reached its drying goal.
