How Wind Driven Rain Water Damage Works in Wingate
-
Establish safe access
Category 3 runoff calls for protective handling. Technicians evaluate contamination before disturbing wet finishes.
-
Remove the standing water
The contractor follows water into nearby rooms. A dry doorway does not prove the next floor layer stayed dry.
-
Address contaminated materials
Flood-soaked wallboard can hold water against framing. Openings allow assessment and treatment of the concealed area.
-
Dry and verify
A wet cavity can lag behind an open floor. Verification checks both instead of relying on appearance.
