Water damage in Scotch 80s and Rancho Circle homes

Large custom homes mean long pipe runs, many bathrooms and finishes that cost a lot to replace. A leak in a far wing can go unseen for days. Drying a big house is about mapping the water first so equipment goes only where readings say it is wet, and costly finishes are dried in place when they can be.

  • Shut the main valve if you will be away for more than a few days.
  • Ask for a moisture map of every room near the leak, not just the wet one.
  • Wood, stone and custom cabinets often dry in place with the right setup.
