How Flood Cleanup Works in Ore City
Water left in drywall can keep a wall cavity damp. Removing unsalvageable sections gives remaining framing a better path to dry. Air movement reaches exposed framing more effectively.

Remove standing water
A crew clears accessible standing water and watches for continued inflow. Continued inflow needs source control before drying.
-
Map moisture
The technician checks wall bases, floors, and likely hidden paths. Readings also help define the equipment layout.
-
Remove soaked material
Soaked insulation is removed where it blocks proper drying. Exposed studs can then receive air movement.

Dry and verify
