Remove standing water

-
Find absorbed moisture
Wall bases get checked after extraction because drywall can wick water above the floor mark.
-
Remove what cannot stay
Dirty water on porous materials changes the work: contaminated pieces usually come out.
-
Dry and verify
Air movers encourage evaporation while dehumidifiers capture moisture from the air.
Act before water reaches another room (888) 578-6508
