Once it's safe, we quickly move to remove any standing water using pumps, wet vacuums, and mops. Next, we focus on drying out the affected areas with fans, de-humidifiers, and by opening windows to promote airflow. To prevent mold and bacteria growth, we thoroughly clean and disinfect all surfaces. Finally, any items that cannot be salvaged are carefully disposed of to ensure a complete and safe restoration process.
