How Storm Water in Basement Cleanup Works in Hoolehua

1. Assess hazards and water depth

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

4. Dry and verify the structure

   Daily moisture logs help confirm that wall and floor layers are moving toward drying goals.
