How Storm Water Removal Works in New Creek

Category 3 water carries contamination into porous finishes. Removing affected material helps expose the remaining structure for cleaning and drying.

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

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

3. Address contaminated materials

   Wet carpet and padding may trap contaminated silt. Removal exposes the floor beneath for cleaning.

4. Dry and verify

   The contractor documents the drying endpoint before rebuilding begins. The insurer can review the mitigation record.
