How Flash Flood Cleanup Works in Protection

Drying equipment controls moisture after the Category 3 cleanup. Mold can grow in 24 to 48 hours if building materials stay wet.

1. Assess hazards and water depth

   Before extraction, workers determine which access points remain stable and dry.

2. Extract standing floodwater

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

3. Remove and clean affected materials

   Sediment trapped under a finish may require access before the structure can dry.

4. Dry and verify the structure

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