How Sewage Backup Flood Water Removal Works in Clark

1. Remove the standing water

   Technicians pull water from carpet and hard surfaces after confirming safe access.

2. Map the moisture

3. Open what holds water

   Soaked padding can block drying of the floor beneath it.

4. Dry and verify

   Drying continues after the visible puddle disappears from the floor.

• Keep children and pets clear.
• Move small belongings to dry ground if safe.
