How Frozen Pipe Water Damage Works in Mulberry

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

1. Remove accessible standing water

   A vacant property can hold water in several places, so crews work through the full wet footprint.

2. Trace moisture through materials

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

3. Expose saturated hidden layers

   Wet ceiling material may require removal when it is sagging or holding water.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   A drying plan changes when readings reveal a pocket of trapped water.
