How Sprinkler Discharge Cleanup Works in Onley

Mold can start growing within 24 to 48 hours on wet materials. A crew extracts sprinkler water and measures concealed areas before dampness persists.

1. Remove standing water

   Technicians pull water from carpet and hard floors, then check whether lower rooms have pooled water.

2. Map wet materials

   A room by room moisture map directs equipment toward the true wet footprint.

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.
