How Wind Driven Rain Water Damage Works in Omer
-
Establish safe access

A pump intake needs sufficient depth to work effectively. The crew switches methods as the water level falls.

Cleaning follows removal of saturated debris. Technicians treat exposed surfaces appropriate to the contamination.
-
Dry and verify
Equipment may move as materials release water at different rates. Final measurements support the dry-out record.

A Omer home from this period may have finished garage walls. Runoff can soak insulation beyond the floor puddle.
