How Wind Driven Rain Water Damage Works in Prather

1. Establish safe access

   The technician identifies submerged electrical equipment before entering the Prather room. Occupants remain outside the water path.

2. Remove the standing water

   The contractor follows water into nearby rooms. A dry doorway does not prove the next floor layer stayed dry.

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

   Equipment may move as materials release water at different rates. Final measurements support the dry-out record.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Runoff entering twice can undo progress from the first drying cycle. Source control and water removal need to stay coordinated.

• Stay out of standing water near outlets, wiring or appliances.
• 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.
