How Rental Property and Landlord Water Damage Water Cleanup Works in Shawmut

1. Remove standing water

2. Find absorbed moisture

3. Remove what cannot stay

   Swollen drywall that has lost strength may need a controlled cut to expose framing.

4. Dry and verify

   Daily readings show whether equipment placement should change as the loss dries.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

• Avoid wet outlets and turn off power only from a dry location.
• Photograph rental floors before moving affected items.
• Keep children and pets away from standing or dirty water.
• Move dry valuables out of the path without walking through water.
