A Tustin Visit, Step by Step
Water moves fast through a house. This sequence gets ahead of it and then proves it is gone.
Source stopped
The water feeding the room is shut off or cut off, and power to wet areas is made safe before extraction starts.
Water typed
Clean supply water, gray water from appliances and dirty storm or sewer water are handled differently, so the source is identified first.
Standing water pumped
Inches of water are pumped out with submersible pumps and hoses so extraction tools can reach the floor.
Carpet and floors extracted
Weighted extraction tools press water out of carpet and pad, and hard floors are extracted with squeegee wands.
Moisture mapped
A moisture meter and thermal camera find the wet edge under floors and inside walls, and the map is recorded.
Drying set up
Air movers and dehumidifiers are placed for the size of the wet area, with baseboards or pad removed where water is trapped.
Checked until dry
Readings are taken on each visit, and the equipment stays until materials read dry.

Common Water Sources in Tustin Homes
The list below covers what crews find on most visits for water extraction in Tustin, CA, from burst lines to storm water.
Burst or leaking pipe
Clean water from a supply line spreads fast. Shut the main, then extraction and drying can save most of the room.
Storm water inside
Water from outside carries soil and debris, so it is treated as dirty water and wet pad is usually removed.
Flooded basement
Inches of water in a basement are pumped out first, then carpet, drywall and stored items are dealt with.
Dishwasher or ice maker leak
Slow leaks under cabinets soak the subfloor and toe kicks before anyone notices.
Leak from upstairs
Water from a bathroom or unit above soaks the ceiling, walls and carpet on the floor below.
Water under hard floors
Laminate, vinyl plank and hardwood trap water underneath, where it cannot dry on its own.
Sewer backup
Water from a floor drain or toilet that backs up is contaminated and is cleaned before drying.

Dry It or Pull It: Deciding in Tustin
Hardwood can often be dried with floor mats if the job starts early, while laminate that has swollen at the seams rarely recovers. The meter readings, the water type and the time it sat decide what stays.

Source first, then water
