How Flood Water Removal and Structural Drying Works in Winside

1. Remove the standing water

   The crew isolates dirty water before clearing the affected area.

2. Map the moisture

   Moisture readings establish where drying equipment must work.

   Cabinet toe kicks may need access so trapped moisture can escape.

4. Dry and verify

   Air movers and dehumidifiers work together while readings are repeated.

• Leave wet electrical areas alone and avoid sealing walls or floors before moisture checks.
• Stop the water source from a safe dry location if possible.
• Keep children and pets away from any dirty or electrically unsafe water.
• Photograph the wet area and move small dry belongings out of its path.
