A restoration crew removes stormwater and dries the wet structure in Hennepin. A plumber handles a broken household pipe if one also contributed to the loss.

How River Flood Home Cleanup Works in Hennepin
-
Assess hazards and water depth
Before extraction, workers determine which access points remain stable and dry.
-
Extract standing floodwater
Standing stormwater leaves the building through pumping matched to depth and debris.
-
Remove and clean affected materials
Sediment trapped under a finish may require access before the structure can dry.
-
Dry and verify the structure
Dehumidifiers and directed airflow dry remaining materials while meter readings show progress.

- Do not restart wet appliances or electrical equipment.
- Record the high-water mark and visible silt from a safe position.

River water can carry sediment and remain against materials for a long time. The crew must clear contamination and check deep moisture after the visible water recedes.
Can residents sweep away the silt and move back in?
Surface cleaning alone does not show whether floors and walls remain wet or contaminated. A restoration assessment checks hidden materials, cleaning needs and safe reentry conditions.
What if river flood home cleanup follows river rise?
