How Wind Driven Rain Water Damage Cleanup Works in Grayling

1. Assess hazards and water depth

3. Remove and clean affected materials

   The team separates salvageable hard materials from porous items that hold contamination.

• Leave an unsafe roof or exterior opening to the appropriate trade.
• Move belongings only if the route is dry and safe.
• Photograph stains and drips without entering damaged areas.
