How Flooded Basement Flood Cleanup Works in Cache

1. Remove standing water

   The technician begins with the rooms holding the most water. Electrical hazards are addressed before wet-room access.

2. Map moisture

   A damp ceiling may reveal water from a room above. Lower ceilings may carry water from upstairs.

3. Remove soaked material

   Material removal follows the water path and contamination level. The crew checks whether neighboring material is wet.
