How Water Heater Flood Cleanup Works in Anacortes

A musty smell a few days after a flood means moisture stayed somewhere. Moisture mapping finds those spots in a Anacortes home before they grow into a bigger problem.

1. Extract the standing water

   The crew handles recovered water according to what it holds. Clean tank water goes to a proper drain, and anything contaminated is handled differently.

2. Map the moisture

   If the heater sits in an attic, the scan includes the ceiling and walls below. Water often travels farther down than it looks from above.

3. Open what holds water

   Wet cabinet kicks and trim may need to come off so the cavity behind them can dry. The crew opens only what the readings call for.

4. Dry and verify

   Technicians return to take moisture readings and adjust equipment. Drying ends when the materials reach the dry reference.
