How Storm Water Removal Works in Placitas

A clean-looking surface can hide damp backing after runoff. Technicians check the assembly before they decide how to dry it.

1. Establish safe access

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

2. Remove the standing water

   Deep pools are lowered with pumping equipment. Extraction tools then address remaining liquid near floor edges.

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

   The crew monitors wet framing and subfloors over time. Visible dryness alone does not end the job.
