How Flood Cleanup Works in Plano
A shutoff valve stops a pipe leak, but it does not dry the house. Extraction and dehumidification handle the moisture already indoors. Water may be held between finish and subfloor.
-
Remove standing water

-
Map moisture
The crew measures porous materials before deciding what can remain. The water category affects material decisions.
-
Remove soaked material
The crew opens wet wall areas when access is needed for drying. A technician records the material taken out.
-
Dry and verify
A technician records progress before equipment is removed. Rebuild planning follows the final dry-out check.
