How Wind Driven Rain Water Damage Works in Moweaqua

1. Establish safe access

   Rising water changes conditions during a job. The crew verifies that the site is stable enough for work.

2. Remove the standing water

   When inflow continues, the crew accounts for new water while planning safe removal.

3. Address contaminated materials

   Wet carpet and padding may trap contaminated silt. Removal exposes the floor beneath for cleaning.

4. Dry and verify

   A wet cavity can lag behind an open floor. Verification checks both instead of relying on appearance.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Mold can start growing within 24 to 48 hours on wet materials. Extraction reduces liquid contact, and the crew measures what remains in walls and floors.

• 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.
