How Wind Driven Rain Water Damage Works in Gardendale
-
Establish safe access
Rising water changes conditions during a job. The crew verifies that the site is stable enough for work.
-
Remove the standing water
Deep pools are lowered with pumping equipment. Extraction tools then address remaining liquid near floor edges.

Address contaminated materials
Cleaning follows removal of saturated debris. Technicians treat exposed surfaces appropriate to the contamination.
-
Dry and verify
