How Flood Cleanup Works in Lakehead
Mold can start growing within 24 to 48 hours on wet materials. Prompt extraction reduces the time water remains inside floors and walls. The crew also checks absorbent layers below the surface.
-
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
The crew measures porous materials before deciding what can remain. The water category affects material decisions.
-
Remove soaked material
Contaminated porous materials are separated from salvageable finishes. The loss source informs contamination handling.
-
Dry and verify
The crew adjusts equipment as the wet area changes. Stubborn damp spots may need different airflow.
