How Refrigerator and Ice Maker Leak Flood Cleanup Works in Monterey

1. Remove standing water

   A crew clears accessible standing water and watches for continued inflow. Continued inflow needs source control before drying.

2. Map moisture

   Moisture mapping identifies materials that still need a drying plan. Concealed saturation changes the scope of work.

3. Remove soaked material

   Carpet pad that cannot be dried safely may need to come out. Removal gives remaining wet layers a path to dry.

4. Dry and verify

   Further readings show whether the drying setup is working. A stable downward trend shows drying progress.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

• Close the ice maker supply valve if safe.
• Stay out of water near electrical equipment.
• Move dry belongings away from the wet area if safe.
• Photograph wet rooms and belongings.
• Call Flood Cleanup Response Team at (888) 471-9821, 24/7, and describe the ice maker leak water.
