How Storm and Flash Flood Flood Water Removal Works in Wakpala
-
Pump or extract liquid water

-
Find moisture beyond the puddle
The moisture map includes unaffected comparison areas. That helps the crew judge drying progress on materials of the same kind.
-
Remove materials that hold unsafe water
Outside flood water can contaminate materials throughout its path. Technicians assess what can be cleaned and what must be discarded.
-
Dry the structure and confirm progress
Equipment remains while subfloors or framing still test wet. The crew removes it after measurements support completion.
