A crew arrives to confirm the water and gas to the heater are off. They assess the spread, common in Logan Heights' utility closets and garages, to plan the extraction and drying scope.
Technicians extract standing water from the affected area. They carefully move and sort any stored items that got wet, a typical task in the compact utility spaces of these older homes.

Replacing the water heater is billed separately by a qualified plumber, while extraction and drying are documented for the water-damage claim.
