How Flash Flood Cleanup Works in Oley

2. Extract standing floodwater

   The crew works from safe access toward wet rooms, taking bulk water out before drying.

3. Remove and clean affected materials

   Category 3 contact often requires removal of porous carpet, pad and insulation.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   The specialist compares wet framing with dry reference points before ending equipment use.
