How Fire Sprinkler Head Leak Cleanup Works in Hallock

1. Remove standing water

   Technicians pull water from carpet and hard floors, then check whether lower rooms have pooled water.

2. Map wet materials

   Moisture meters reveal damp drywall and flooring beyond the obvious sprinkler spray area.

3. Open trapped areas

   The crew removes unsalvageable porous materials and records why they came out.

4. Dry and verify

   A dry reference helps confirm when affected materials are ready for later finishes.

• Call a fire sprinkler contractor to assess and isolate the affected system.
• Do not twist, plug or remove the sprinkler head.
• Photograph the drip and surrounding stains from a safe spot.
• Move small belongings away from the wet area when safe.
