How Water Line Break Flooding Cleanup Works in Altus

1. Remove Standing Water

   Technicians pull standing water from hard surfaces and suitable floor coverings. They keep electrical hazards outside the work area.

2. Map Concealed Moisture

3. Remove Materials That Hold Water

   Dirty water can change what porous finishes can be kept. A technician assesses contamination and material condition.

4. Dry and Verify the Structure

   Dehumidifiers collect moisture released into the air while airflow supports evaporation. Final measurements show when the structure is ready for rebuilding.
