How Flash Flood Cleanup Works in West Harrison

A flooded basement often retains humidity after standing water leaves. Mold may appear on wet materials as early as 24 to 48 hours.

3. Remove and clean affected materials

   Sediment trapped under a finish may require access before the structure can dry.

   The crew adjusts equipment when humidity stays high or a cavity reading stops improving.
