How Flood Cleanup Works in Guatay
Standing water is the visible part of a flood loss. The crew also checks hidden materials that could remain moist after pumping. Pumping alone does not dry a wall cavity.
-
Remove standing water
After safety hazards are addressed, extraction reduces water sitting indoors. The remaining wet layers are assessed afterward.
-
Map moisture
The crew measures porous materials before deciding what can remain. The water category affects material decisions.
-
Remove soaked material
Damaged drywall sections can be taken out to expose wet framing. The opening is documented for later rebuilding.
-
Dry and verify
Drying continues until measured targets are reached. The crew checks the target material itself.
