How Water Heater Flood Cleanup Works in Little Ferry

Mold removal is not part of the crew's work. The job is to remove the water and dry the structure quickly enough that mold never gets started.

1. Extract the standing water

   The crew handles recovered water according to what it holds. Clean tank water goes to a proper drain, and anything contaminated is handled differently.

2. Map the moisture

   Pin and pinless meters check different depths. The crew uses both on flooring, framing and drywall, then sketches the results.

3. Open what holds water

   Soaked pad, insulation and drywall that cannot dry get cut out and bagged. Removing them early keeps the rest of the structure on track.

4. Dry and verify

   Final readings and the equipment log go into the job file, and the homeowner gets copies for the claim.
