How Wind Driven Rain Water Damage Cleanup Works in Montezuma Creek

   Standing stormwater leaves the building through pumping matched to depth and debris.

3. Remove and clean affected materials

   Sediment trapped under a finish may require access before the structure can dry.

• Leave an unsafe roof or exterior opening to the appropriate trade.
