Indoor water cleanup / A household guide
Map the affected indoor area
Indoor water cleanup may follow a plumbing leak, a fixture overflow or water released by an appliance. The first priority is to describe where water appeared and which rooms or materials were affected.
A provider can discuss water extraction, moisture assessment and drying based on the indoor conditions and the area involved.
