How Frozen Pipe Water Damage Works in Mullen

A frozen pipe leak may soak carpet padding even when the carpet top feels nearly dry. The technician checks beneath the surface before choosing drying steps.

1. Remove accessible standing water

2. Trace moisture through materials

   The technician measures dampness beyond the puddle to find affected building layers.

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

4. Dry and verify the structure
