How Flood Cleanup Works in Okemos
Water left in drywall can keep a wall cavity damp. Removing unsalvageable sections gives remaining framing a better path to dry. Air movement reaches exposed framing more effectively.
-
Remove standing water
The technician begins with the rooms holding the most water. Electrical hazards are addressed before wet-room access.
-
Map moisture
Readings trace water beyond the visible puddle and into adjacent rooms. A nearby dry area can provide a useful comparison.
-
Remove soaked material
Carpet pad that cannot be dried safely may need to come out. Removal gives remaining wet layers a path to dry.
-
Dry and verify
Drying continues until measured targets are reached. The crew checks the target material itself.
