How Flash Flood House Cleanup Works in Strafford

1. Establish safe access

   The technician identifies submerged electrical equipment before entering the Strafford room. Occupants remain outside the water path.

2. Remove the standing water

   Deep pools are lowered with pumping equipment. Extraction tools then address remaining liquid near floor edges.

3. Address contaminated materials

   Affected insulation may be discarded so the cavity can dry. The contractor records what was removed.

4. Dry and verify

   The crew monitors wet framing and subfloors over time. Visible dryness alone does not end the job.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

An odor after flooding can signal damp materials out of sight. Moisture mapping identifies where further inspection is needed.

• Stay out of standing water near outlets, wiring or appliances.
• Follow local reentry instructions if the neighborhood has flooded.
• Photograph the visible water line and affected belongings from a safe place.
• Keep children and pets away from wet rooms and contaminated items.
• Call (888) 450-9281 so extraction can begin when access is safe.
