What Flood Water Removal and Structural Drying Includes in Confluence

After visible water is removed, damp framing and subfloors still need controlled drying. Studs, joists, wall cavities, and concrete can retain moisture at different depths. The work includes air movers and dehumidifiers, moisture mapping, and wall cavity drying.
For a toilet overflow, the source must be controlled first. A water damage technician then checks contamination and removes water from affected rooms.
