How Water Heater Flood Cleanup Works in Cincinnatus

Mold removal is not part of the crew's work. The job is to remove the water and dry the structure quickly enough that mold never gets started.

1. Extract the standing water

   The operator checks depth, sets the intake and runs hoses to a proper discharge point. The goal is to get the bulk of the tank water out of the building first.

2. Map the moisture

   A moisture meter and a thermal camera show where water spread beyond the puddle. The technician marks wet walls and floors and records the readings.

3. Open what holds water

   Soaked pad, insulation and drywall that cannot dry get cut out and bagged. Removing them early keeps the rest of the structure on track.

4. Dry and verify

   Final readings and the equipment log go into the job file, and the homeowner gets copies for the claim.
