How Flash Flood Cleanup Works in Colfax

1. Assess hazards and water depth

2. Extract standing floodwater

   Workers clear water and sediment from accessible surfaces before the detailed moisture map.

3. Remove and clean affected materials

4. Dry and verify the structure

   The crew adjusts equipment when humidity stays high or a cavity reading stops improving.
