How Frozen Pipe Water Damage Works in George

Mold can start growing within 24 to 48 hours on wet materials. Rapid water removal and controlled drying lower the time those materials stay damp.

1. Remove accessible standing water

   Wet carpet and hard-floor edges get attention first so liquid does not sit against trim.

2. Trace moisture through materials

   Wall corners and baseboards are checked because water can wick upward.

3. Expose saturated hidden layers

   The crew assesses whether floor covering can dry in place or must be lifted.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   Final checks help show when structural drying is complete.
