How Floor Drain Backup Cleanup Works in Slippery Rock

Handle affected materials
The mitigation team separates contaminated contents from clean items. Material handling follows the source and category of the drain water.

Dry and verify
The drying log tracks progress at the same measured locations. Equipment remains where the structure still needs help releasing moisture.
