How Flood Cleanup Works in Granger
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
A crew clears accessible standing water and watches for continued inflow. Continued inflow needs source control before drying.
-
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
Drying continues until measured targets are reached. The crew checks the target material itself.
