1. Establish safe access

   Rising water changes conditions during a job. The crew verifies that the site is stable enough for work.

   When inflow continues, the crew accounts for new water while planning safe removal.

3. Address contaminated materials

   Outside floodwater is Category 3. The crew identifies porous finishes that cannot be cleaned for safe reuse.

   The contractor documents the drying endpoint before rebuilding begins. The insurer can review the mitigation record.
