How Fire Sprinkler Leak Cleanup Works in Old Lyme

Water trapped behind a baseboard needs more than a surface wipe. A technician checks the wall and monitors drying as conditions change.

1. Remove pooled sprinkler water

   Crews recover shallow pools and check whether lower rooms collected water from an overhead release.

2. Trace wet material beyond the puddle

   Moisture meters reveal damp gypsum and flooring that a visual check may miss.

3. Open trapped areas when needed

   A closed wall base can hold sprinkler water; the technician assesses whether opening is necessary.

4. Verify the dry condition

   The technician adjusts equipment if a ceiling cavity stays damp after initial drying.
