How Fire Sprinkler Head Leak Cleanup Works in Burkeville

1. Remove standing water

   A restoration team starts with visible water so structural drying can address what remains inside materials.

2. Map wet materials

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

3. Open trapped areas

   Insulation holding sprinkler water may need removal before framing can dry.

4. Dry and verify

   The crew records drying progress for the property owner and insurance claim.

• Do not twist, plug or remove the sprinkler head.
• Photograph the drip and surrounding stains from a safe spot.
