How Frozen Pipe Flood Water Removal Works in Morrison

1. Remove the standing water

   Extraction limits how much additional water enters porous finishes.

2. Map the moisture

   Recorded measurements set a baseline for the dry-out.

3. Open what holds water

   Contaminated porous materials often require careful removal.

4. Dry and verify

   Daily checks show whether wet framing is moving toward its drying goal.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Water from sewage or outdoors changes the handling of porous materials. Contaminated pieces often need removal before clean drying can proceed.

• Shut off the supply and never use an open flame on the pipe.
• Avoid water near electrical equipment.
• Keep children and pets clear.
• Move small belongings to dry ground if safe.
• Photograph the damage before moving items.
