How Water Line Break Cleanup Works in Lyman

Soil-contaminated water calls for careful material handling. Porous materials that cannot be cleaned may need removal before drying continues.

1. Pump and extract the water

   A main break can fill a low area quickly. Pumps clear the bulk water while the crew watches for continued flow. Water depth and room layout determine where pumping begins.

2. Map moisture beyond the puddle

   The crew measures framing near the water entry point. Nearby dry materials provide comparison readings. The assessor records each value so progress can be checked later.

3. Remove materials that hold dirty water

   Insulation in a flooded crawl space may stay saturated. Removing affected sections allows joists to dry. Drying the wood below may require access beyond the visible opening.

4. Dry and confirm with readings

   Air movers and dehumidifiers pull moisture from exposed materials. Final readings show whether the target is met. Final readings can support the next contractor work on floors and walls.
