What Flood Water Removal and Structural Drying Includes in Sublimity

A visible pool is only the start of flood water removal and structural drying in Sublimity. Subfloors and wall bases may still need drying.

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.

When a water heater leaks, its repair or replacement belongs to the appliance trade. The cleanup crew handles standing water and soaked building materials.
