How Storm Water Removal Works in Hickory

Mold can start growing within 24 to 48 hours on wet materials. Extraction reduces liquid contact, and the crew measures what remains in walls and floors.

1. Establish safe access

   Floodwater can conceal debris beneath its surface. The crew checks entry and equipment routes before pumping.

2. Remove the standing water

   The contractor follows water into nearby rooms. A dry doorway does not prove the next floor layer stayed dry.

3. Address contaminated materials

   Outside floodwater is Category 3. The crew identifies porous finishes that cannot be cleaned for safe reuse.

4. Dry and verify

   Air movers and dehumidifiers address moisture remaining after extraction. Readings shape equipment placement.
