How it's done

The water heater leak process in Cottonwood Heights

1

Shutoff and Extraction

Technicians first ensure the water and power to the heater are off. Then they extract all standing water from the floor and surrounding areas in the Cottonwood Heights home to prevent further spreading.

2

Remove and Map

The crew removes any saturated drywall, insulation, or flooring that cannot be dried. They also map how far the water traveled from the heater location to understand the full scope of damage.

3

Dry and Verify

Air movers and dehumidifiers dry the slab, framing, and adjacent materials. Technicians take moisture readings until every area meets a verified dry standard, documenting the process for the homeowner.
