How Frozen Pipe In Attic Cleanup Works in Wappapello

1. Remove accessible standing water

   The extraction plan follows the visible flow path across each affected room.

2. Trace moisture through materials

   Adjacent rooms are assessed when water has crossed a doorway or cavity.

3. Expose saturated hidden layers

   When wall material traps water, a controlled opening can make drying possible.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   Equipment remains focused on materials that still show elevated moisture.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Closed wall cavities lose moisture slowly without access and airflow. Readings help the crew decide whether an opening is needed.

• Stay out from under any bowed or dripping ceiling.
• Do not use wet ceiling lights or fans.
• Turn off the supply if the shutoff is safely accessible.
• Have a plumber address the attic pipe.
• Move dry belongings away from the drip path.
