What Ice Dam Water Damage Flood Water Removal Includes in Pine Meadow

Water category matters during ice dam water damage flood water removal. The Pine Meadow crew treats sewage and outside flood water as contaminated and uses the corresponding cleanup steps. Fresh indoor water receives its own assessment.

Snowmelt backing beneath roof covering at an icy eave can send water through attic insulation, exterior walls, and ceiling corners. Attic insulation, plaster, ceiling drywall and trim may stay damp beyond the visible pool. An interior stain can continue growing after the weather clears because the insulation still holds water.

A roof leak needs a roofing trade to stop new rain entry. Meanwhile, water removal technicians address the wet ceiling, attic insulation and interior finishes once conditions permit.

3. Remove materials that hold unsafe water

   Outside flood water can contaminate materials throughout its path. Technicians assess what can be cleaned and what must be discarded.
