How Storm Water Removal Works in Lockhart
Category 3 water carries contamination into porous finishes. Removing affected material helps expose the remaining structure for cleaning and drying.
-
Establish safe access
The first inspection marks the source and depth of the pool. Those observations shape the removal plan.

Remove the standing water
A pump intake needs sufficient depth to work effectively. The crew switches methods as the water level falls.
-
Address contaminated materials
Outside floodwater is Category 3. The crew identifies porous finishes that cannot be cleaned for safe reuse.
-
Dry and verify
The contractor documents the drying endpoint before rebuilding begins. The insurer can review the mitigation record.
