How Frozen Pipe Water Damage Works in Ely

A garage leak can wet shared wall materials on the house side. The Ely assessment looks for migration through trim and wall edges.

1. Remove accessible standing water

   An attic leak may require water removal at the ceiling level and below it.

2. Trace moisture through materials

   Adjacent rooms are assessed when water has crossed a doorway or cavity.

3. Expose saturated hidden layers

   Material removal is documented before the drying equipment is positioned.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   Equipment remains focused on materials that still show elevated moisture.
