How Water Line Break Flooding Cleanup Works in Mills River

3. Remove Materials That Hold Water

   A floor covering can trap water beneath it. Lifting or removal may be needed to reach the wet layer.

4. Dry and Verify the Structure

   A room can feel dry before hidden layers reach target moisture levels. The crew checks both the surface and the assembly below.
