How Storm Water Removal Works in Jay

An odor after flooding can signal damp materials out of sight. Moisture mapping identifies where further inspection is needed.

1. Establish safe access

   Floodwater can conceal debris beneath its surface. The crew checks entry and equipment routes before pumping.

2. Remove the standing water

   A pump intake needs sufficient depth to work effectively. The crew switches methods as the water level falls.

3. Address contaminated materials

   Affected insulation may be discarded so the cavity can dry. The contractor records what was removed.

4. Dry and verify

   The crew monitors wet framing and subfloors over time. Visible dryness alone does not end the job.
