How Wall and Drywall Flood Water Removal Works in Libby

1. Remove the standing water

   A crew starts with the visible pool, using equipment suited to its depth.

2. Map the moisture

   Recorded measurements set a baseline for the dry-out.

3. Open what holds water

   Soaked padding can block drying of the floor beneath it.

4. Dry and verify

   Final moisture checks support the handoff to any later rebuild work.
