What to Do Before the Crew Arrives
Water left in drywall can keep a wall cavity damp. Removing unsalvageable sections gives remaining framing a better path to dry. Air movement reaches exposed framing more effectively.
- Keep away from the pit and wet electrical equipment.
- Stay out of water near electrical equipment.
- Move dry belongings away from the wet area if safe.
- Photograph wet rooms and belongings.

A pinhole in aging copper can dampen insulation before a stain appears. Readings help find the affected cavity. Opening the cavity can expose wet backing and studs.
