How Rain Intrusion Flood Cleanup Works in Witter

Readings trace water beyond the visible puddle and into adjacent rooms. A nearby dry area can provide a useful comparison.
-
Remove soaked material
Contaminated porous materials are separated from salvageable finishes. The loss source informs contamination handling.
-
Dry and verify
A technician records progress before equipment is removed. Rebuild planning follows the final dry-out check.
