How Flood Water Removal and Structural Drying Works in Russellville

1. Remove the standing water

   The crew isolates dirty water before clearing the affected area.

2. Map the moisture

   Hidden cavities are assessed where the water path suggests intrusion.

   Soaked padding can block drying of the floor beneath it.

4. Dry and verify

   Daily checks show whether wet framing is moving toward its drying goal.

• Stop the water source from a safe dry location if possible.
• Keep children and pets away from any dirty or electrically unsafe water.
• Photograph the wet area and move small dry belongings out of its path.
