How Flash Flood Cleanup Works in Startup

2. Extract standing floodwater

   Workers clear water and sediment from accessible surfaces before the detailed moisture map.

3. Remove and clean affected materials

   The team separates salvageable hard materials from porous items that hold contamination.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   Daily moisture logs help confirm that wall and floor layers are moving toward drying goals.
