How Flash Flood Cleanup Works in Sistersville

Drying equipment controls moisture after the Category 3 cleanup. Mold can grow in 24 to 48 hours if building materials stay wet.

1. Assess hazards and water depth

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

2. Extract standing floodwater

   The crew works from safe access toward wet rooms, taking bulk water out before drying.

3. Remove and clean affected materials

   Workers clean salvageable hard surfaces after gross debris and damaged porous layers are gone.

4. Dry and verify the structure

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