How Frozen Pipe Water Damage Works in Lorimor

Closed wall cavities lose moisture slowly without access and airflow. Readings help the crew decide whether an opening is needed.

1. Remove accessible standing water

   The crew extracts pooled water from the Lorimor room before it reaches more flooring.

2. Trace moisture through materials

   The technician measures dampness beyond the puddle to find affected building layers.

3. Expose saturated hidden layers

   Soaked insulation may be removed to give framing a path to dry.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   Final checks help show when structural drying is complete.
