How Flood Cleanup Works in Fentress
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
After safety hazards are addressed, extraction reduces water sitting indoors. The remaining wet layers are assessed afterward.
-
Map moisture
A damp ceiling may reveal water from a room above. Lower ceilings may carry water from upstairs.
-
Remove soaked material
Carpet pad that cannot be dried safely may need to come out. Removal gives remaining wet layers a path to dry.
-
Dry and verify
Air movers and dehumidifiers dry materials that can stay in place. Humidity control supports evaporation from structural materials.
