How Flood Water Removal and Structural Drying Works in Grayson

1. Remove the standing water

   Technicians pull water from carpet and hard surfaces after confirming safe access.

2. Map the moisture

   Recorded measurements set a baseline for the dry-out.

3. Open what holds water

   Cabinet toe kicks may need access so trapped moisture can escape.

4. Dry and verify

   Final moisture checks support the handoff to any later rebuild work.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

A dry-looking floor may hide a wet pad underneath. Moisture readings help reveal that hidden water before it lingers.

• Leave wet electrical areas alone and avoid sealing walls or floors before moisture checks.
• 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.
