How Flash Flood House Cleanup Works in Castor

1. Establish safe access

   A basement stairway may be slippery or blocked. Workers assess access before carrying extraction tools down.

2. Remove the standing water

   Runoff carrying silt can leave deposits after the pool drains. Workers remove debris as part of the cleanup.

3. Address contaminated materials

   Flood-soaked wallboard can hold water against framing. Openings allow assessment and treatment of the concealed area.

4. Dry and verify

   Equipment may move as materials release water at different rates. Final measurements support the dry-out record.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

A basement with little airflow may stay damp long after pumping. Dehumidification and readings show whether the dry-out is progressing.

• Stay out of standing water near outlets, wiring or appliances.
• Follow local reentry instructions if the neighborhood has flooded.
• Photograph the visible water line and affected belongings from a safe place.
• Keep children and pets away from wet rooms and contaminated items.
• Call (888) 450-9281 so extraction can begin when access is safe.

Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan

Cleanup Records for an Insurance Claim

• Note whether a storm drain overflowed
• Save a separate contents inventory

Coverage depends on your policy, so check with your own insurer.
