How Flash Flood Cleanup Works in Shippensburg

   The technician checks electrical exposure and safe entry before anyone pumps the Shippensburg property.

2. Extract standing floodwater

   Standing stormwater leaves the building through pumping matched to depth and debris.

3. Remove and clean affected materials

   The crew opens affected wall bases when contaminated materials cannot be restored in place.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   Daily moisture logs help confirm that wall and floor layers are moving toward drying goals.
