How Flash Flood Cleanup Works in Florence

   A walkthrough tracks where outside water reached flooring, walls and lower cavities.

2. Extract standing floodwater

   Standing stormwater leaves the building through pumping matched to depth and debris.

3. Remove and clean affected materials

   The team separates salvageable hard materials from porous items that hold contamination.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   The specialist compares wet framing with dry reference points before ending equipment use.
