The Burst Pipe Water Removal Process in Rancho Santa Margarita

Wet Drywall Removal

A burst pipe inside a wall often soaks drywall on both sides. Both faces are checked, and the wet sections are removed.

Burst Pipe Mold Prevention

After drying, studs, plates and subfloor that were soaked can be treated before new drywall and flooring are installed.

Burst Pipe Water Extraction

Extraction starts at the lowest, wettest spots and works outward, including closets, stair landings and the ceiling below if water came through.

Water Damaged Floor Removal

Solid hardwood can sometimes be dried in place with special drying mats. Readings show whether that is possible.

Broken Pipe Water Cleanup

Belongings near the break are moved to a dry room and blocked up off wet floors to prevent stains and further damage.
