How Flood Water Removal and Structural Drying Works in Eureka

1. Remove the standing water

3. Open what holds water

   The technician explains material removal based on contamination and readings.

4. Dry and verify

   Daily checks show whether wet framing is moving toward its drying goal.

• 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.
