Who comes first depends on the moment. If the heater is still pouring, close the valve or call the plumber. If the water has already stopped, call the crew right away.

How Condo Water Heater Leak Flood Cleanup Works in Tipp City
-
Extract the standing water
On a hard floor, the crew pushes and vacuums water toward a low spot. On carpet, it makes slow, overlapping passes with a weighted wand.
-
Map the moisture
A moisture meter and a thermal camera show where water spread beyond the puddle. The technician marks wet walls and floors and records the readings.
-
Open what holds water
Baseboards come off so wall bottoms can breathe. Small cuts in drywall let air reach wet insulation and studs.
-
Dry and verify
Final readings and the equipment log go into the job file, and the homeowner gets copies for the claim.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives
People with asthma, allergies or weak immune systems should stay out of a room that has been wet for days. Call the crew, and leave the soaked materials to the crew.
- Close the cold water valve at the heater, or the unit's shutoff, if you can reach it.
- Call the building manager so the neighbors below can be warned.
- Do not use lights or outlets in the wet closet or hallway.
- Take photos of the closet, floor and any stains before anything moves.
- Tell the front desk or manager that a crew is coming so the entrance stays clear.
