How Flash Flood Cleanup Works in Fort Irwin

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

1. Assess hazards and water depth

   A walkthrough tracks where outside water reached flooring, walls and lower cavities.

2. Extract standing floodwater

   Standing stormwater leaves the building through pumping matched to depth and debris.

3. Remove and clean affected materials

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

4. Dry and verify the structure

   A final set of material measurements helps determine when rebuilding can begin.
