How Sprinkler Discharge Cleanup Works in Georgetown

1. Remove standing water

   Water removal targets low spots first, including thresholds where flow has collected.

2. Map wet materials

   The crew checks ceiling cavities and rooms below to trace the discharge path.

3. Open trapped areas

   When water sits behind trim, selective opening gives moisture an escape path.

4. Dry and verify

   Final readings show when salvageable surfaces no longer need drying equipment.
