How Flash Flood Cleanup Works in Hazel Park

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

   Sediment trapped under a finish may require access before the structure can dry.

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