How Frozen Pipe Water Damage Works in Mc Intosh

A garage leak can wet shared wall materials on the house side. The Mc Intosh assessment looks for migration through trim and wall edges.

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

   Moisture mapping records how far the thaw leak moved from the split.

3. Expose saturated hidden layers

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

4. Dry and verify the structure

   Air movers and dehumidifiers work together while the crew tracks material readings.
