How Refrigerator and Ice Maker Leak Flood Cleanup Works in San Quentin

1. Remove standing water

   After safety hazards are addressed, extraction reduces water sitting indoors. The remaining wet layers are assessed afterward.

2. Map moisture

   Readings trace water beyond the visible puddle and into adjacent rooms. A nearby dry area can provide a useful comparison.

3. Remove soaked material

   Contaminated porous materials are separated from salvageable finishes. The loss source informs contamination handling.

4. Dry and verify

   The crew adjusts equipment as the wet area changes. Stubborn damp spots may need different airflow.
