What to Do Before the Crew Arrives
Category 3 water carries contamination into porous finishes. Removing affected material helps expose the remaining structure for cleaning and drying.
- Stay out of standing water near outlets, wiring or appliances.
- Follow local reentry instructions if the neighborhood has flooded.
- Photograph the visible water line and affected belongings from a safe place.
- Keep children and pets away from wet rooms and contaminated items.
- Call (888) 450-9281 so extraction can begin when access is safe.
Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
ACS figures put 27% of local units before 1960. A technician checks the actual floor and wall layers instead of assuming their age. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Arcadia was built in the 1970s. Mid-century homes sometimes have low exterior doors. A storm flood can move quickly through that opening into adjacent rooms.
A late-season freeze may leave a window well blocked. Rainwater can then reach a finished basement wall.
