How Sprinkler Discharge Cleanup Works in Gifford

   A technician documents the standing water and extracts it before setting the drying plan.

2. Map wet materials

   Testing wall bases and subfloors shows where surface mopping failed to reach.

3. Open trapped areas

   A wet carpet pad often needs attention even when the carpet surface feels clear.

4. Dry and verify

   Technicians adjust equipment as the wet footprint shrinks and material readings change.
