How Burst Pipe Flood Water Removal Works in Mc Donald

1. Remove the standing water

2. Map the moisture

   Moisture readings establish where drying equipment must work.

3. Open what holds water

   Wet drywall sections may be removed to expose the cavity.

4. Dry and verify

   Final moisture checks support the handoff to any later rebuild work.
