1. Remove Standing Water

   The crew pumps deep basement water before treating wet floors. Early liquid removal reduces the amount left for drying equipment.

3. Remove Materials That Hold Water

   Dirty water can change what porous finishes can be kept. A technician assesses contamination and material condition.

4. Dry and Verify the Structure

   Structural drying targets framing and subfloors as well as visible surfaces. The team records final readings for the claim file.
