What Ice Dam Water Flood Cleanup Includes in Carson
Every ice dam water flood cleanup loss has its own water path. In Carson, the crew maps moisture and removes water from affected surfaces. The actual water source determines the first cleanup steps.
With ice dam water, water slips under roofing and stains an attic, wall or ceiling during a thaw. Moisture may remain in attic insulation, sheathing, wall board and ceiling finish.
Water under a cabinet can move through seams before anyone notices. The plumbing fix and the structural dry-out are separate tasks. Prompt checks help define the actual dry-out area.
