How Wind Driven Rain Water Damage Works in Nunda
-
Establish safe access
A basement stairway may be slippery or blocked. Workers assess access before carrying extraction tools down.
-
Remove the standing water
Deep pools are lowered with pumping equipment. Extraction tools then address remaining liquid near floor edges.

Address contaminated materials
A written material record helps explain why demolition occurred. The next construction phase waits for dry conditions.
-
Dry and verify
Moisture mapping shows whether adjoining rooms still hold water. Technicians update the drying plan accordingly.
