How Fire Sprinkler Leak Cleanup Works in Elwell

Water trapped behind a baseboard needs more than a surface wipe. A technician checks the wall and monitors drying as conditions change.

1. Remove pooled sprinkler water

   Bulk extraction takes water off the surface so the drying phase can address what remains inside materials.

2. Trace wet material beyond the puddle

   The crew compares suspect areas with unaffected materials in the same building.

3. Open trapped areas when needed

   Materials that cannot be dried appropriately are documented before removal.

4. Verify the dry condition

   The technician adjusts equipment if a ceiling cavity stays damp after initial drying.
