How Condo Water Damage Water Cleanup Works in Waterloo

2. Find absorbed moisture

   A thermal camera can point toward cooler damp areas, which technicians confirm with direct readings.

3. Remove what cannot stay

   Soaked carpet pad may be lifted so the floor beneath it can dry.

4. Dry and verify

   Daily readings show whether equipment placement should change as the loss dries.
