How Storm Water Removal Works in Hortense

A clean-looking surface can hide damp backing after runoff. Technicians check the assembly before they decide how to dry it.

1. Establish safe access

   Category 3 runoff calls for protective handling. Technicians evaluate contamination before disturbing wet finishes.

2. Remove the standing water

   Surface extraction helps limit further absorption. The team checks seams and coverings that retained water.

3. Address contaminated materials

   Flood-soaked wallboard can hold water against framing. Openings allow assessment and treatment of the concealed area.

4. Dry and verify

   A wet cavity can lag behind an open floor. Verification checks both instead of relying on appearance.
