How Storm Water Removal Works in Hickory Hills

1. Establish safe access

   Rising water changes conditions during a job. The crew verifies that the site is stable enough for work.

2. Remove the standing water

3. Address contaminated materials

   Flood-soaked wallboard can hold water against framing. Openings allow assessment and treatment of the concealed area.

4. Dry and verify

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