How Wind Driven Rain Water Damage Works in Pinehurst
-
Establish safe access
Floodwater can conceal debris beneath its surface. The crew checks entry and equipment routes before pumping.
-
Remove the standing water

-
Address contaminated materials
Affected insulation may be discarded so the cavity can dry. The contractor records what was removed.
-
Dry and verify
A wet cavity can lag behind an open floor. Verification checks both instead of relying on appearance.
