How Wind Driven Rain Water Damage Cleanup Works in Chittenango

1. Assess hazards and water depth

   A crew identifies the floodwater path, sediment and wet rooms to shape the first work plan.

2. Extract standing floodwater

   An extraction team removes pooled floodwater so damp layers can be assessed more accurately.

3. Remove and clean affected materials

   The contractor explains each proposed removal with photographs and material findings.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   The specialist compares wet framing with dry reference points before ending equipment use.

• Keep away from sagging ceilings and wet light fixtures.
• Leave an unsafe roof or exterior opening to the appropriate trade.
• Move belongings only if the route is dry and safe.
• Photograph stains and drips without entering damaged areas.
• Call 24/7 and identify the suspected rain entry point.
