How Water Line Break Flooding Cleanup Works in Woodson

1. Remove Standing Water

   The team documents the initial water depth where possible. Pumping and extraction prepare the structure for the next drying phase.

   Structural drying targets framing and subfloors as well as visible surfaces. The team records final readings for the claim file.
