How Laminate Vinyl and LVP Water Damage Water Cleanup Works in Chatham

   A thermal camera can point toward cooler damp areas, which technicians confirm with direct readings.

3. Remove what cannot stay

   Soaked carpet pad may be lifted so the floor beneath it can dry.

4. Dry and verify

   Technicians monitor humidity and material moisture, then record the results for the job file.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

• Stop the water at a safe shutoff if the source is inside.
• Avoid wet outlets and turn off power only from a dry location.
• Photograph laminate cores before moving affected items.
