How Flash Flood Cleanup Works in Friendship

Porous materials need attention after outside flooding. When left wet, they can support mold before two days have passed.

1. Assess hazards and water depth

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

2. Extract standing floodwater

   Workers clear water and sediment from accessible surfaces before the detailed moisture map.

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

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