How HVAC Leak Water Damage Works in Chicora

The first day matters when flooring absorbs AC water. Photos and moisture readings establish where the work should focus.

1. Extract the escaped water

   An attic overflow may drip into a room below. The crew captures surface water before evaluating the ceiling material.

2. Map the wet boundary

   Floor seams and baseboards can conceal an AC overflow path. Moisture mapping shows where the liquid traveled.

3. Remove material that holds water

   Porous material that cannot dry safely is taken out before closing the drying phase. Rebuild follows later.

4. Dry and verify materials

   The technician records progress during the dry out. Those notes describe the work for the homeowner and an insurance claim.
