What Closet Water Heater Leak Water Damage Includes in Roosevelt
A technician reads the damage before deciding what to remove. In Roosevelt, that means a thermal scan, a meter check and a marked boundary around the wet zone.
A water heater closet is a small room with walls all around and no drain. A leak has nowhere to go but out the door, under the baseboards and into the hall.
A homeowner does not have to pick one trade over the other. The plumber's invoice covers the heater, and the crew's records cover the drying, which keeps the insurance file clean.
