How Flash Flood Cleanup Works in Kell

   Standing stormwater leaves the building through pumping matched to depth and debris.

3. Remove and clean affected materials

   The team separates salvageable hard materials from porous items that hold contamination.

4. Dry and verify the structure

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