How Water Line Break Flooding Cleanup Works in Thor

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.

1. Remove Standing Water

   A main break can leave pockets of water behind trim or thresholds. Extraction follows the actual spread rather than one visible puddle.

2. Map Concealed Moisture

   A technician assesses framing, floor layers and wall bases. The findings define what stays and what needs removal.

3. Remove Materials That Hold Water

   The crew limits removal to the affected assembly when conditions permit. Pipe work stays with the utility or plumber.

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.
