How Frozen Pipe Leak Water Removal Works in Gerber

Wet insulation blocks easy airflow through a wall or ceiling. The technician decides what must be removed to dry the surrounding structure.

1. Remove the pooled water

   A wet carpet may need repeated passes to pull water from the backing and pad.

2. Trace damp materials

   Meters reveal moisture beyond the stain and help define the drying area.

3. Expose trapped moisture

   A ceiling section may need controlled removal after overhead water damage.

4. Verify the dry-out

   Repeat meter readings show whether affected wood and wallboard are losing moisture.
