How Flood Water Removal and Structural Drying Works in Sedgwick

1. Remove the standing water

   Extraction limits how much additional water enters porous finishes.

2. Map the moisture

   Meters show whether subfloors remain wet beyond the visible edge.

3. Open what holds water

   Contaminated porous materials often require careful removal.

4. Dry and verify

   The crew records progress until affected materials meet the drying plan.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

A dry-looking floor may hide a wet pad underneath. Moisture readings help reveal that hidden water before it lingers.

• Leave wet electrical areas alone and avoid sealing walls or floors before moisture checks.
• 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.
• Call (888) 399-5795 for 24/7 flood water removal.
