How River Flood Home Cleanup Works in Butte Des Morts

1. Assess hazards and water depth

   The technician checks electrical exposure and safe entry before anyone pumps the Butte Des Morts property.

2. Extract standing floodwater

   Workers clear water and sediment from accessible surfaces before the detailed moisture map.

3. Remove and clean affected materials

   The contractor explains each proposed removal with photographs and material findings.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   The crew adjusts equipment when humidity stays high or a cavity reading stops improving.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

After pumping, trapped water can persist behind wall trim. That dampness gives mold a chance to develop in roughly 24 to 48 hours.

• Follow local reentry directions and avoid flood-covered roads.
• 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.
