How Flash Flood Cleanup Works in Ireland

A drying plan should follow contaminated material removal. On surfaces that remain wet, mold can begin during the first 24 to 48 hours.

   The assessor marks water levels and affected finishes while documenting Category 3 contact.

2. Extract standing floodwater

   Workers clear water and sediment from accessible surfaces before the detailed moisture map.

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.
