How Refrigerator and Ice Maker Leak Flood Cleanup Works in Nelson
-
Remove standing water

-
Map moisture
Readings trace water beyond the visible puddle and into adjacent rooms. A nearby dry area can provide a useful comparison.
-
Remove soaked material
Material removal follows the water path and contamination level. The crew checks whether neighboring material is wet.
-
Dry and verify
Air movers and dehumidifiers dry materials that can stay in place. Humidity control supports evaporation from structural materials.

- Close the ice maker supply valve if safe.
- Stay out of water near electrical equipment.
- Move dry belongings away from the wet area if safe.
- Photograph wet rooms and belongings.
