How Water Heater Flood Cleanup Works in Bridgewater

Warm, damp rooms are where mold takes hold. Tank water leaves both, and the closet or garage around a heater often has little airflow to carry it off.

1. Extract the standing water

   Extraction starts once the supply is off and the room is safe to enter. Every gallon pulled out early is less water for the walls to absorb.

2. Map the moisture

   The map becomes the drying plan and the baseline for every daily reading. It also goes into the claim records.

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.

Cleanup Records for an Insurance Claim

Condo owners deal with two policies. The association's policy covers the shared structure, and the owner's policy covers the inside of the unit and its contents. Which policy pays for what depends on the building's documents.

• Save texts and emails with the insurer
• Write down when the leak was first noticed
• Photograph the tank and the water before anything moves

Coverage depends on your policy, so check with your own insurer.
