How Storm Water Removal Works in West Rupert

Wet wall insulation slows drying inside a cavity. The technician assesses removal so framing can be cleaned and monitored.

1. Establish safe access

   Category 3 runoff calls for protective handling. Technicians evaluate contamination before disturbing wet finishes.

2. Remove the standing water

   A pump intake needs sufficient depth to work effectively. The crew switches methods as the water level falls.

3. Address contaminated materials

   Outside floodwater is Category 3. The crew identifies porous finishes that cannot be cleaned for safe reuse.

4. Dry and verify

   The contractor documents the drying endpoint before rebuilding begins. The insurer can review the mitigation record.
