2. Extract standing floodwater

   The contractor records the water removed and checks whether entry continues during the job.

3. Remove and clean affected materials

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

4. Dry and verify the structure

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

The typical home in the ZIP codes around Klamath was built in the 1970s. Several decades of flooring changes can leave stacked layers. The crew looks for trapped moisture after extraction.
