How Vacant and Vacation Home Water Damage Water Cleanup Works in Yacolt

   Portable units reach upper rooms where truck mounted equipment cannot be placed close to the loss.

2. Find absorbed moisture

3. Remove what cannot stay

   Opening a trapped assembly gives air a path to the wet material inside.

• Avoid wet outlets and turn off power only from a dry location.
