How Wall and Drywall Water Damage Water Cleanup Works in Loma

1. Remove standing water

2. Find absorbed moisture

   A thermal camera can point toward cooler damp areas, which technicians confirm with direct readings.

3. Remove what cannot stay

   Insulation holding water can keep a wall cavity damp even after the surface feels dry.

4. Dry and verify

   The crew compares final readings with the unaffected reference before equipment removal.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

A clean looking surface can conceal moist wood underneath. The crew uses meters to find those areas and keeps air moving until readings reach the drying target.
