How Water Line Break Cleanup Works in Morenci

A crawl space flood may wet framing overhead. Drying the air without checking joists can leave concealed moisture.

1. Pump and extract the water

   A main break can fill a low area quickly. Pumps clear the bulk water while the crew watches for continued flow. Water depth and room layout determine where pumping begins.

2. Map moisture beyond the puddle

   Lower wall cavities are examined where water climbed. Recorded values mark the drying targets. Different materials call for different measurement methods.

3. Remove materials that hold dirty water

   Soaked porous finishes may need removal after contact with dirty water. The remaining structure is cleaned and dried. The crew keeps a note of each exposed cavity for the homeowner record.

4. Dry and confirm with readings

   A basement needs controlled air and humidity after pumping. Technicians monitor the structure over the drying period. Humidity control helps reduce moisture movement into adjacent areas.
