How Wind Driven Rain Water Damage Works in Lyons
-
Establish safe access
A basement stairway may be slippery or blocked. Workers assess access before carrying extraction tools down.
-
Remove the standing water
The contractor follows water into nearby rooms. A dry doorway does not prove the next floor layer stayed dry.
-
Address contaminated materials
Wet carpet and padding may trap contaminated silt. Removal exposes the floor beneath for cleaning.
-
Dry and verify
The contractor documents the drying endpoint before rebuilding begins. The insurer can review the mitigation record.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives
Water beneath a floating floor has limited evaporation paths. Opening the assembly may be necessary to address trapped moisture.
- Stay out of standing water near outlets, wiring or appliances.
- Follow local reentry instructions if the neighborhood has flooded.
- Photograph the visible water line and affected belongings from a safe place.
- Keep children and pets away from wet rooms and contaminated items.
- Call (888) 450-9281 so extraction can begin when access is safe.
