How Flash Flood Cleanup Works in Iron Mountain

A flooded basement often retains humidity after standing water leaves. Mold may appear on wet materials as early as 24 to 48 hours.

1. Assess hazards and water depth

   A crew identifies the floodwater path, sediment and wet rooms to shape the first work plan.

2. Extract standing floodwater

   Standing stormwater leaves the building through pumping matched to depth and debris.

3. Remove and clean affected materials

   The crew opens affected wall bases when contaminated materials cannot be restored in place.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   A final set of material measurements helps determine when rebuilding can begin.
