How Flood Cleanup Works in Homer
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
A crew clears accessible standing water and watches for continued inflow. Continued inflow needs source control before drying.
-
Map moisture
Readings trace water beyond the visible puddle and into adjacent rooms. A nearby dry area can provide a useful comparison.
-
Remove soaked material
Damaged drywall sections can be taken out to expose wet framing. The opening is documented for later rebuilding.
-
Dry and verify
The crew adjusts equipment as the wet area changes. Stubborn damp spots may need different airflow.
