How Flood Cleanup Works in Alma
A dry-looking surface can hide a wet backing layer. Moisture checks help the crew locate damp materials before they sit for days. A technician compares readings as equipment runs.

-
Remove soaked material
The crew opens wet wall areas when access is needed for drying. A technician records the material taken out.

Dry and verify
Further readings show whether the drying setup is working. A stable downward trend shows drying progress.
