A restoration crew removes stormwater and dries the wet structure in Bellamy. A plumber handles a broken household pipe if one also contributed to the loss.

How River Flood Home Cleanup Works in Bellamy

1. Assess hazards and water depth

   The technician checks electrical exposure and safe entry before anyone pumps the Bellamy property.

2. Extract standing floodwater

   The crew works from safe access toward wet rooms, taking bulk water out before drying.

3. Remove and clean affected materials

   Workers clean salvageable hard surfaces after gross debris and damaged porous layers are gone.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   Dehumidifiers and directed airflow dry remaining materials while meter readings show progress.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

• Follow local reentry directions and avoid flood-covered roads.
• Stay out of rooms with damaged wiring or visible structural movement.
• Do not restart wet appliances or electrical equipment.
• Record the high-water mark and visible silt from a safe position.
• Call 24/7 with the water depth and duration of flooding.
