Trace damp materials
A technician tests the subfloor where the puddle crossed flooring seams.
-
Expose trapped moisture
Floor layers are assessed for trapped water that surface airflow cannot reach.

Verify the dry-out

Yes. Ice can conceal a split until water flows again. Watch exposed pipe areas as temperatures rise.
