A pipe usually fails inside a wall cavity, which means the visible damage is only a fraction of what's actually happening behind the drywall.
We open the wall cavity carefully, only as far as moisture readings say is necessary, rather than tearing out an entire wall.
We'll walk you through shutoff steps over the phone if you call before we arrive.
We use pressure testing and moisture tracing to locate exactly where a supply line failed inside the wall.
Minimizing removal keeps Walterboro, SC repair costs down without leaving wet insulation behind.
Our Walterboro, SC team works alongside your plumber or one we can refer, so the repair and drying stay coordinated.
