How Wind Driven Rain Water Damage Works in Keystone
-
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
Wet carpet and padding may trap contaminated silt. Removal exposes the floor beneath for cleaning.
-
Dry and verify
Equipment may move as materials release water at different rates. Final measurements support the dry-out record.
