How Structural Drying for Flood Cleanup Works in Luebbering

1. Remove standing water

3. Remove soaked material

   Damaged drywall sections can be taken out to expose wet framing. The opening is documented for later rebuilding.

4. Dry and verify

   Final checks document the remaining structure after extraction. Records can explain the work to an insurer.

• If the source is plumbing, shut off the supply valve when it is safe to reach.
• Keep children and pets away from dirty water.
