How Fire Sprinkler Leak Cleanup Works in South Gibson

A slow sprinkler head leak may be discovered after finishes have absorbed water. Moisture readings show the extent that a stain cannot reveal.

1. Remove pooled sprinkler water

   Standing water is pumped or vacuumed before it can keep feeding floor seams and carpet cushion.

2. Trace wet material beyond the puddle

   A warm-looking image alone does not prove a cavity is dry; physical measurement matters.

3. Open trapped areas when needed

   A closed wall base can hold sprinkler water; the technician assesses whether opening is necessary.

4. Verify the dry condition

   The South Gibson crew records a completed dry-out when the measured materials meet the plan.
