How HVAC Leak Water Damage Works in Newark
A soaked carpet pad traps more liquid than the carpet surface suggests. The crew removes or dries affected layers according to their condition.
-

A closet wall can absorb condensate on its hidden side. The crew checks both faces when access allows.

Dry and verify materials
The crew monitors flooring and wall edges instead of relying on a dry appearance. Final measurements establish the condition.
