What Storm and Flash Flood Water Cleanup Includes in Palms
During storm and flash flood water cleanup around Palms, the team photographs damage and logs readings. Those records show what the crew removed and how materials dried.
Intense rain or rising streams can force outside water into a building. Floodwater carries soil across floors and into wall cavities as the level climbs. The visible puddle may show only part of the wet area because flooring, insulation, drywall, furniture, and stored goods hold hidden moisture.
