How Frozen Pipe Leak Water Removal Works in Algonquin

A thaw leak may keep dripping after the valve closes because water is trapped in the assembly. The crew checks the full path and dries affected materials.

1. Remove the pooled water

   A pump clears deeper accumulation before smaller extraction tools reach the film left behind.

2. Trace damp materials

   Wall cavities beside a split pipe are checked for absorbed water.

3. Expose trapped moisture

   The technician opens wet materials only where needed to reach retained water.

4. Verify the dry-out

   The crew records the progression and adjusts equipment when a layer dries slowly.

• Record the date the pipe first froze

Coverage depends on your policy, so check with your own insurer.
