How Flash Flood Cleanup Works in South Hamilton

Porous materials need attention after outside flooding. When left wet, they can support mold before two days have passed.

2. Extract standing floodwater

   The contractor records the water removed and checks whether entry continues during the job.

3. Remove and clean affected materials

   Sediment trapped under a finish may require access before the structure can dry.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   A final set of material measurements helps determine when rebuilding can begin.
