How Ice Dam Water Damage Flood Water Removal Works in Roosevelt

1. Pump or extract liquid water

   A restoration crew works from the deepest accumulation toward the wet edges. The floor is checked again as the visible water recedes.

2. Find moisture beyond the puddle

   Meters reveal damp subfloor and wall bases that eyes cannot judge. The wet map tells the team where drying equipment belongs.

3. Remove materials that hold unsafe water

   Outside flood water can contaminate materials throughout its path. Technicians assess what can be cleaned and what must be discarded.

4. Dry the structure and confirm progress

   Final moisture checks help separate drying from later rebuild. New finishes are addressed only after the structure is ready.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Storm water often reaches dirtier surfaces than fresh supply water. Mold may begin growing on damp materials after 24 to 48 hours after saturation. Contaminated porous materials may need removal before drying proceeds.

• Keep people away from wet outlets, ceiling fixtures, and standing water of unknown origin.
• Move dry documents and electronics away from the wet floor.
