How Flood Cleanup Works in Cedar Bluff

-
Remove standing water
Basement water is pumped out before detailed material checks. Deep pooling may hide wet contents below the surface.
-
Map moisture
A damp ceiling may reveal water from a room above. Lower ceilings may carry water from upstairs.
-
Remove soaked material
Contaminated porous materials are separated from salvageable finishes. The loss source informs contamination handling.
-
Dry and verify
Drying continues until measured targets are reached. The crew checks the target material itself.
