How Flood Cleanup Works in Hawks
Delay lets water spread through seams and absorbent finishes. Call for cleanup while the affected area can be mapped promptly. After extraction, dehumidifiers address residual moisture.
-
Remove standing water
Pumps draw down deep water so the crew can reach floors and lower walls. The crew checks whether water is still entering.
-
Map moisture
A damp ceiling may reveal water from a room above. Lower ceilings may carry water from upstairs.
-
Remove soaked material
Contaminated porous materials are separated from salvageable finishes. The loss source informs contamination handling.
-
Dry and verify
Drying continues until measured targets are reached. The crew checks the target material itself.
