How Flash Flood Cleanup Works in Artesia

A drying plan should follow contaminated material removal. On surfaces that remain wet, mold can begin during the first 24 to 48 hours.

2. Extract standing floodwater

   An extraction team removes pooled floodwater so damp layers can be assessed more accurately.

3. Remove and clean affected materials

   The contractor explains each proposed removal with photographs and material findings.

4. Dry and verify the structure

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