How Flood Cleanup Works in Ironsides
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
Extraction tools collect pooled water from carpet and hard surfaces. Edges and low points can hold residual water.
-
Map moisture
Subfloor seams and cabinet bases receive close moisture checks. Kitchen and bath finishes can conceal wet backing.
-
Remove soaked material
Contaminated porous materials are separated from salvageable finishes. The loss source informs contamination handling.
-
Dry and verify
Final checks document the remaining structure after extraction. Records can explain the work to an insurer.
