How Wind Driven Rain Water Damage Cleanup Works in Elkland

1. Assess hazards and water depth

   An extraction team removes pooled floodwater so damp layers can be assessed more accurately.

3. Remove and clean affected materials

   Sediment trapped under a finish may require access before the structure can dry.
