How Frozen Pipe Flood Water Removal Works in Mount Orab

1. Remove the standing water

   Technicians pull water from carpet and hard surfaces after confirming safe access.

2. Map the moisture

   Moisture readings establish where drying equipment must work.

3. Open what holds water

4. Dry and verify
