How Frozen Pipe Flood Water Removal Works in Carrollton

1. Remove the standing water

   The crew isolates dirty water before clearing the affected area.

2. Map the moisture

   Recorded measurements set a baseline for the dry-out.

3. Open what holds water

   Soaked padding can block drying of the floor beneath it.

4. Dry and verify

   Equipment placement changes when measurements reveal a stubborn area.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Air movement alone cannot dry a room with a large pool. Extraction comes first, followed by equipment and repeat moisture checks.

• Shut off the supply and never use an open flame on the pipe.
• Avoid water near electrical equipment.
• Keep children and pets clear.
• Move small belongings to dry ground if safe.
• Photograph the damage before moving items.
