A garage floor is bare concrete, so tank water does not soak in. It runs. It follows the slope, picks up dust and oil, and slips under the wall or door that joins the house.

A gas heater adds a safety step. On any gas smell, leave the house and call the gas utility, then call the crew once the home is safe to enter.

How Garage Water Heater Leak Flood Cleanup Works in Wellesley Island

1. 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.

2. Map the moisture

   The map becomes the drying plan and the baseline for every daily reading. It also goes into the claim records.

3. Open what holds water

   Hardwood and laminate may need drying mats or the removal of a few boards, depending on how deep the water went.

4. Dry and verify

   Drying in Wellesley Island usually takes several days, and thicker materials take longer. The readings, not a calendar, decide when it is done.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Hot tank water raises humidity in a closed room. That extra moisture settles on cool surfaces, so dehumidifiers matter as much as pumps.

• Close the cold water valve above the heater if the floor around it is dry.
• Do not touch the garage door opener or outlets standing in water.
• Lift tools, paint cans and electronics onto a dry bench or shelf.
• Smell gas near a gas heater? Leave and call the gas utility.
• Keep the door to the house closed to slow water going inside.
