How Sprinkler Discharge Cleanup Works in Sheldon

Standing water spreads into seams and wall bases while cleanup waits. Extraction starts the drying process, followed by moisture checks and dehumidification.

1. Remove standing water

   A restoration team starts with visible water so structural drying can address what remains inside materials.

2. Map wet materials

   A technician compares wet readings with dry reference materials in the same building.

3. Open trapped areas

   When water sits behind trim, selective opening gives moisture an escape path.

4. Dry and verify

   Technicians adjust equipment as the wet footprint shrinks and material readings change.
