How Frozen Pipe Water Damage Works in Oscar

A garage leak can wet shared wall materials on the house side. The Oscar assessment looks for migration through trim and wall edges.

1. Remove accessible standing water

   For a crawl space loss, technicians check low areas where water collected beneath the home.

2. Trace moisture through materials

   Adjacent rooms are assessed when water has crossed a doorway or cavity.

3. Expose saturated hidden layers

   Soaked insulation may be removed to give framing a path to dry.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   Final checks help show when structural drying is complete.
