How Flash Flood Cleanup Works in Olympia

Drying equipment controls moisture after the Category 3 cleanup. Mold can grow in 24 to 48 hours if building materials stay wet.

1. Assess hazards and water depth

   Before extraction, workers determine which access points remain stable and dry.

2. Extract standing floodwater

   Pumps remove deeper water; extraction tools pull smaller remaining pools from reachable areas.

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.
