How Sewage Backup Flood Water Removal Works in Fallon

   A crew starts with the visible pool, using equipment suited to its depth.

2. Map the moisture

   Moisture readings establish where drying equipment must work.

3. Open what holds water

   Final moisture checks support the handoff to any later rebuild work.

• Move small belongings to dry ground if safe.
• Photograph the damage before moving items.
