How Floor Drain Backup Cleanup Works in Morton

-
Remove the overflow
Standing drain water is removed with suitable extraction equipment. The crew protects unaffected contents while defining the wet boundary.

Handle affected materials
Where Category 3 water contacted absorbent finishes, the crew removes those materials before drying. Sanitation addresses surfaces that remain.

Dry and verify
