How Storm Water Removal Works in Oak Bluffs

Category 3 water carries contamination into porous finishes. Removing affected material helps expose the remaining structure for cleaning and drying.

1. Establish safe access

   A basement stairway may be slippery or blocked. Workers assess access before carrying extraction tools down.

2. Remove the standing water

   Runoff carrying silt can leave deposits after the pool drains. Workers remove debris as part of the cleanup.

3. Address contaminated materials

   A written material record helps explain why demolition occurred. The next construction phase waits for dry conditions.

4. Dry and verify

   Moisture mapping shows whether adjoining rooms still hold water. Technicians update the drying plan accordingly.
