How Storm Water Removal Works in Portland

An odor after flooding can signal damp materials out of sight. Moisture mapping identifies where further inspection is needed.

1. Establish safe access

   The technician identifies submerged electrical equipment before entering the Portland room. Occupants remain outside the water path.

2. Remove the standing water

   A pump intake needs sufficient depth to work effectively. The crew switches methods as the water level falls.

3. Address contaminated materials

   Cleaning follows removal of saturated debris. Technicians treat exposed surfaces appropriate to the contamination.

4. Dry and verify

   Moisture mapping shows whether adjoining rooms still hold water. Technicians update the drying plan accordingly.
