How Water Cleanup Works in Paton
Mold can start growing within 24 to 48 hours on damp materials. Fast extraction and dehumidification lower the time walls and floors remain wet.
-
Remove standing water
Hard surfaces are vacuumed carefully so liquid does not keep migrating beneath baseboards.
-
Find absorbed moisture
A room by room moisture map helps place drying gear where it will matter.
-
Remove what cannot stay
Dirty water on porous materials changes the work: contaminated pieces usually come out.
-
Dry and verify
Air movers encourage evaporation while dehumidifiers capture moisture from the air.
