How Wind Driven Rain Water Damage Cleanup Works in Blount

1. Assess hazards and water depth

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

   The technician records drying conditions and provides the owner with a factual job file.

• Leave an unsafe roof or exterior opening to the appropriate trade.
• Move belongings only if the route is dry and safe.
• Photograph stains and drips without entering damaged areas.
• Call 24/7 and identify the suspected rain entry point.
