Why Every Minute Matters
A Burst Pipe Is a Race Against the Clock
A 3/4-inch supply line at normal residential pressure releases over 100 gallons per minute. In the time it takes most homeowners to realize what’s happening and find the shutoff valve, hundreds of gallons have already saturated floors, walls, and ceilings.
Water damage follows a predictable and brutal timeline: within one hour, drywall absorbs moisture and begins to swell. Within 24–48 hours, mold begins to colonize wet organic materials. Within a week, structural damage to framing and subfloors can make a straightforward cleanup into a full gut renovation.
The most important variable is how fast professional extraction and drying begins. Green Clean dispatches from Cockeysville with truck-mounted extractors, commercial dehumidifiers, and thermal imaging cameras — arriving ready to stop the clock the moment we walk in.
Two Specialists, One Call
We dispatch two certified technicians simultaneously — one handles water extraction and restoration, one handles moisture mapping and structural drying. Twice the speed, no damage missed.
Immediate Steps
What To Do Right Now
Before we arrive — these 5 steps can significantly reduce total damage and protect your insurance claim.
Shut Off the Main Water Supply
Find your main shutoff valve — usually in the basement, utility room, or near where the water line enters the house. Turn it fully clockwise to stop flow. This is the single most impactful thing you can do right now.
Call Green Clean at (410) 961-6770
We dispatch two specialists within 30 minutes, 24 hours a day. The sooner extraction begins, the less structural damage you’ll face and the lower your total restoration cost.
Turn Off Electricity to Affected Rooms
If water has reached floors with outlets, switches, or appliances, flip those circuit breakers at your main panel before entering. Water and electricity are life-threatening in combination.
Move Valuables Off Wet Floors
If you can do so safely, move furniture, rugs, electronics, and important documents off wet surfaces. Elevate items on blocks if possible — continued contact with wet flooring causes secondary damage to contents.
Photograph Everything Before Cleanup Begins
Walk through and photograph all visible water, damage to walls, floors, ceilings, and contents from every angle. This documentation is critical for your insurance claim. Do it before touching anything else.
