How Sprinkler Discharge Cleanup Works in Hewitt

Delayed discovery usually broadens the wet footprint. A restoration crew checks adjacent spaces, extracts standing water and tracks daily readings.

1. Remove standing water

   A technician documents the standing water and extracts it before setting the drying plan.

2. Map wet materials

   A room by room moisture map directs equipment toward the true wet footprint.

3. Open trapped areas

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

4. Dry and verify

   A dry reference helps confirm when affected materials are ready for later finishes.
