How River Flood Home Cleanup Works in West Danville

1. Assess hazards and water depth

   The assessor marks water levels and affected finishes while documenting Category 3 contact.

2. Extract standing floodwater

   Pumps remove deeper water; extraction tools pull smaller remaining pools from reachable areas.

   Workers clean salvageable hard surfaces after gross debris and damaged porous layers are gone.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   The specialist compares wet framing with dry reference points before ending equipment use.

• Stay out of rooms with damaged wiring or visible structural movement.
• Do not restart wet appliances or electrical equipment.
• Record the high-water mark and visible silt from a safe position.
