How Wind Driven Rain Water Damage Cleanup Works in Havana

1. Assess hazards and water depth

   The contractor photographs conditions and chooses protective measures for the contaminated area.

2. Extract standing floodwater

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

   The crew opens affected wall bases when contaminated materials cannot be restored in place.

4. Dry and verify the structure

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