How Wind Driven Rain Water Damage Cleanup Works in Bethlehem

1. Assess hazards and water depth

   Standing stormwater leaves the building through pumping matched to depth and debris.

3. Remove and clean affected materials

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

   Daily moisture logs help confirm that wall and floor layers are moving toward drying goals.

• Leave an unsafe roof or exterior opening to the appropriate trade.
