How Ice Dam Water Damage Flood Water Removal Works in Arroyo Hondo

1. Pump or extract liquid water

   After checking electrical safety, technicians remove pooled water from the affected Arroyo Hondo rooms. Smaller pockets are extracted once the main level falls.

2. Find moisture beyond the puddle

   Water travels beneath flooring through seams and low spots. The crew follows that route with readings, including adjacent rooms.

3. Remove materials that hold unsafe water

   A clean water loss may allow some finishes to dry in place. The choice depends on the material, duration and measured saturation.

4. Dry the structure and confirm progress

   Dehumidification collects moisture released into the indoor air. The readings create a record of the dry-out for the property owner.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

• Keep people away from wet outlets, ceiling fixtures, and standing water of unknown origin.
• Move dry documents and electronics away from the wet floor.
