How Water Heater Leak Water Damage Works in Archer
A slow leak can keep a subfloor wet for weeks. By the time a stain appears, the wet period runs far longer than two days. The crew measures how deep the moisture goes before deciding how much comes out.
-
Pump out the standing water
Water that sits under a heater drains into low spots, door tracks and carpet edges. The crew chases it into each one with a wand and a pump.
-
Map where the water went
A thermal camera shows cool, wet patches on floors and walls that look dry. A moisture meter then confirms which patches hold water.
-
Remove what cannot dry
Wet ceiling drywall below an attic heater can sag with trapped water. The crew drains it by cutting from a safe position before it falls.
-
Dry the structure and verify
Once the readings pass, the crew removes the equipment and hands over the drying log. Rebuild work is quoted after drying.
