How Sprinkler Discharge Cleanup Works in Hightstown

Water in an insulated wall can remain after the floor looks normal. Moisture mapping reveals the saturated zone so technicians can dry the assembly.

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

   Access points are chosen from the measured wet area rather than a broad guess.

4. Dry and verify

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