How Frozen Sprinkler Line Burst Cleanup Works in Olympia

1. Remove standing water

   The extraction crew clears pooled sprinkler water before it enters more seams and wall bases.

2. Map wet materials

   Moisture meters reveal damp drywall and flooring beyond the obvious sprinkler spray area.

3. Open trapped areas

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

4. Dry and verify

   Measured structural drying continues after visible puddles disappear.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Carpet pad and drywall may stay wet after the surface clears. Fast structural drying reduces the time those absorbent layers remain damp.

• Keep people clear of sagging ceilings and wet electrical fixtures.
• Call the sprinkler contractor for system isolation and pipe repairs.
• Avoid open flames or direct high heat on frozen piping.
• Record where and when water first appeared after the thaw.
• Move small belongings away from dripping water when safe.
