How Flash Flood Cleanup Works in Dunkirk

The assessor checks subfloor layers before new flooring covers them. Mold may start forming after about one to two days of dampness.

1. Assess hazards and water depth

   The contractor photographs conditions and chooses protective measures for the contaminated area.

2. Extract standing floodwater

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

3. Remove and clean affected materials

   The team separates salvageable hard materials from porous items that hold contamination.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   The crew adjusts equipment when humidity stays high or a cavity reading stops improving.
