How Flood Water Removal and Structural Drying Works in Avalon

1. Remove the standing water

   Technicians pull water from carpet and hard surfaces after confirming safe access.

2. Map the moisture

   Moisture readings establish where drying equipment must work.

3. Open what holds water

   Contaminated porous materials often require careful removal.

4. Dry and verify

   Air movers and dehumidifiers work together while readings are repeated.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Water from sewage or outdoors changes the handling of porous materials. Contaminated pieces often need removal before clean drying can proceed.

• Leave wet electrical areas alone and avoid sealing walls or floors before moisture checks.
• Stop the water source from a safe dry location if possible.
• Keep children and pets away from any dirty or electrically unsafe water.
• Photograph the wet area and move small dry belongings out of its path.
• Call (888) 399-5795 for 24/7 flood water removal.
