What Wind Driven Rain Water Damage Cleanup Includes in Tickfaw
The crew checks entry conditions and water depth for wind driven rain water damage cleanup. At a Tickfaw home, contaminated porous materials may need removal before drying.
Wind can push rain sideways through a damaged opening, wetting insulation and wall cavities before water appears on the floor. A ceiling stain may spread after the storm because trapped water continues moving through the assembly.
Floodwater removal and source work can proceed as separate jobs. The crew documents damaged materials in Tickfaw; the appropriate trade corrects the entry defect.
