How Frozen Sprinkler Line Burst Cleanup Works in Fingerville

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

   The crew removes unsalvageable porous materials and records why they came out.

4. Dry and verify

   A dry reference helps confirm when affected materials are ready for later finishes.

A dry touch is not a dry material reading. The technician compares affected surfaces with dry references before equipment comes out.

• Keep people clear of sagging ceilings and wet electrical fixtures.
• Call the sprinkler contractor for system isolation and pipe repairs.
