How Flash Flood House Cleanup Works in Presidio

1. Assess hazards and water depth

   Before extraction, workers determine which access points remain stable and dry.

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

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

• Wait until local officials say the area is safe to enter.
• Keep children and pets away from floodwater and muddy rooms.
• Leave electrical switches alone when standing water remains nearby.
• Photograph the waterline and damaged belongings from a safe position.
• Call 24/7 and explain which rooms took in outside water.
