How Condo Flood Cleanup Works in Sutherland

1. Remove standing water

   A crew clears accessible standing water and watches for continued inflow. Continued inflow needs source control before drying.

2. Map moisture

   A damp ceiling may reveal water from a room above. Lower ceilings may carry water from upstairs.

3. Remove soaked material

   Contaminated porous materials are separated from salvageable finishes. The loss source informs contamination handling.

4. Dry and verify

   The crew adjusts equipment as the wet area changes. Stubborn damp spots may need different airflow.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Standing water is the visible part of a flood loss. The crew also checks hidden materials that could remain moist after pumping. Pumping alone does not dry a wall cavity.

• Notify building management when water crosses a shared wall or floor.
• If the source is plumbing, shut off the supply valve when it is safe to reach.
• Keep children and pets away from dirty water.
• Move dry belongings out of the water path when safe.
• Photograph visible water and damaged belongings before moving them.
