How River Flood Home Cleanup Works in Lamar
-
Establish safe access
Category 3 runoff calls for protective handling. Technicians evaluate contamination before disturbing wet finishes.

Dry and verify
Air movers and dehumidifiers address moisture remaining after extraction. Readings shape equipment placement.
