   Workers clear water and sediment from accessible surfaces before the detailed moisture map.

3. Remove and clean affected materials

   Category 3 contact often requires removal of porous carpet, pad and insulation.

Cleanup Records for an Insurance Claim

The flood policy may distinguish building damage from contents. A contractor’s records can support both descriptions when those items are affected. Only the insurer interprets the policy.

• Document material removal before disposal
• Separate contents from building items

Coverage depends on your policy, so check with your own insurer.
