How Refrigerator and Ice Maker Leak Flood Cleanup Works in Stambaugh

1. Remove standing water

   The technician begins with the rooms holding the most water. Electrical hazards are addressed before wet-room access.

2. Map moisture

   A damp ceiling may reveal water from a room above. Lower ceilings may carry water from upstairs.

3. Remove soaked material

   Soaked insulation is removed where it blocks proper drying. Exposed studs can then receive air movement.

4. Dry and verify

   Drying continues until measured targets are reached. The crew checks the target material itself.

• Close the ice maker supply valve if safe.
• Stay out of water near electrical equipment.
• Move dry belongings away from the wet area if safe.
• Photograph wet rooms and belongings.
