How Wind Driven Rain Water Damage Works in Leesville
-
Establish safe access
A basement stairway may be slippery or blocked. Workers assess access before carrying extraction tools down.

A written material record helps explain why demolition occurred. The next construction phase waits for dry conditions.
-
Dry and verify
The crew monitors wet framing and subfloors over time. Visible dryness alone does not end the job.
