How Furniture and Contents Flood Cleanup Works in Olmito

1. Remove standing water

   The technician begins with the rooms holding the most water. Electrical hazards are addressed before wet-room access.

2. Map moisture

   A damp ceiling may reveal water from a room above. Lower ceilings may carry water from upstairs.

3. Remove soaked material

   The crew opens wet wall areas when access is needed for drying. A technician records the material taken out.

4. Dry and verify

   Air movers and dehumidifiers dry materials that can stay in place. Humidity control supports evaporation from structural materials.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Delay lets water spread through seams and absorbent finishes. Call for cleanup while the affected area can be mapped promptly. After extraction, dehumidifiers address residual moisture.

• Do not carry heavy soaked furniture across a flooded electrical area.
• If the source is plumbing, shut off the supply valve when it is safe to reach.
• Keep children and pets away from dirty water.
• Move dry belongings out of the water path when safe.
• Photograph visible water and damaged belongings before moving them.
