How Frozen Pipe Water Damage Works in Potrero

Closed wall cavities lose moisture slowly without access and airflow. Readings help the crew decide whether an opening is needed.

1. Remove accessible standing water

   Wet carpet and hard-floor edges get attention first so liquid does not sit against trim.

2. Trace moisture through materials

   Adjacent rooms are assessed when water has crossed a doorway or cavity.

3. Expose saturated hidden layers

   A swollen baseboard can conceal a damp wall edge that needs access.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   Final checks help show when structural drying is complete.
