How Insurance Claim Flood Water Removal Works in Notre Dame

1. Pump or extract liquid water

   A crew lowers standing water with pumps, then uses extraction tools on reachable floors. The method depends on depth and whether the source has stopped.

2. Find moisture beyond the puddle

   Water travels beneath flooring through seams and low spots. The crew follows that route with readings, including adjacent rooms.

3. Remove materials that hold unsafe water

   Water trapped behind baseboards may call for controlled opening. The crew exposes wet framing only where the findings support it.

4. Dry the structure and confirm progress

   Technicians adjust equipment when one area dries slower than the rest. A dry surface alone does not end monitoring.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Storm water often reaches dirtier surfaces than fresh supply water. Mold may begin growing on damp materials after 24 to 48 hours after saturation. Contaminated porous materials may need removal before drying proceeds.

• Stop the water source if safe.
• Keep children and pets outside the wet area.
• Photograph the source and affected materials if safe.
• Move loose belongings away from spreading water.
• Call (888) 949-8496 for 24/7 flood water removal.
