How Wind Driven Rain Water Damage Works in Dewar
-
Establish safe access
The first inspection marks the source and depth of the pool. Those observations shape the removal plan.

Address contaminated materials
Flood-soaked wallboard can hold water against framing. Openings allow assessment and treatment of the concealed area.

Dry and verify
A wet cavity can lag behind an open floor. Verification checks both instead of relying on appearance.
