How Wind Driven Rain Water Damage Works in Paradise
-
Establish safe access

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives
Category 3 water carries contamination into porous finishes. Removing affected material helps expose the remaining structure for cleaning and drying.

- 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.
