How Sprinkler Discharge Cleanup Works in Waynesboro

A dry touch is not a dry material reading. The technician compares affected surfaces with dry references before equipment comes out.

1. Remove standing water

   Water removal targets low spots first, including thresholds where flow has collected.

2. Map wet materials

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

3. Open trapped areas

   When water sits behind trim, selective opening gives moisture an escape path.

4. Dry and verify

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