How Sprinkler Discharge Cleanup Works in Berkeley

Delayed discovery usually broadens the wet footprint. A restoration crew checks adjacent spaces, extracts standing water and tracks daily readings.

1. Remove standing water

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

2. Map wet materials

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

3. Open trapped areas

   Access points are chosen from the measured wet area rather than a broad guess.

4. Dry and verify

   Air movers and dehumidifiers run until daily readings reach the drying target.
