How HVAC Leak Water Damage Works in Lavaca

Standing pan water may carry dirt into porous finishes. The crew assesses water condition before deciding what material can remain.

1. Extract the escaped water

   A technician first removes visible liquid from the Lavaca floor. Recovery tools then work along the edges where condensate collected.

2. Map the wet boundary

   Meter readings outline which Lavaca building materials are still damp. The crew compares the readings with nearby dry surfaces.

3. Remove material that holds water

   Trim can be lifted to reach a wet floor edge. The crew records what was removed for later finish work.

4. Dry and verify materials

   A ceiling below an attic AC unit needs readings across the wet span. Drying is complete when the targeted materials reach an appropriate condition.
