How Wall and Drywall Flood Water Removal Works in Potsdam

1. Remove the standing water

   A crew starts with the visible pool, using equipment suited to its depth.

2. Map the moisture

   Recorded measurements set a baseline for the dry-out.

3. Open what holds water

   Wet drywall sections may be removed to expose the cavity.

4. Dry and verify

   Daily checks show whether wet framing is moving toward its drying goal.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Porous drywall absorbs floodwater along its lower edge. The crew checks the depth and contamination before deciding what can remain.

• Keep clear of wet outlets and have the water source stopped before opening the wall.
• Stop the water source from a safe dry location if possible.
• Keep children and pets away from any dirty or electrically unsafe water.
• Photograph the wet area and move small dry belongings out of its path.
• Call (888) 399-5795 for 24/7 flood water removal.
