How Frozen Pipe Water Damage Works in Kerby

Wet drywall continues to wick water above the visible stain. Early extraction reduces the moisture that can spread through a Kerby wall.

1. Remove accessible standing water

   An attic leak may require water removal at the ceiling level and below it.

2. Trace moisture through materials

   Moisture mapping records how far the thaw leak moved from the split.

3. Expose saturated hidden layers

   A swollen baseboard can conceal a damp wall edge that needs access.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   A drying plan changes when readings reveal a pocket of trapped water.
