How Furniture and Contents Water Damage Water Cleanup Works in Farmersburg

4. Dry and verify

   Technicians monitor humidity and material moisture, then record the results for the job file.

• Stop the water at a safe shutoff if the source is inside.
• Avoid wet outlets and turn off power only from a dry location.
• Photograph upholstery before moving affected items.
