Extract the floor and the cavity

Open and remove what is soaked
Soaked insulation goes into bags, and drywall that has gone soft comes down in sections. The crew cuts back to dry, solid edges.

Dry and verify

Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
The Census Bureau counts about 28,741 residents across the 1 ZIP code near Imperial, and every one of those homes has a ceiling and a roof. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Imperial was built in the 1990s. Roofs from these years are often on a second or third set of shingles. Worn flashing and aging sealant can let rain through even on a newer roof.
Rain often arrives with wind in this climate, driving water sideways under shingles and into ceilings. Most homes near Imperial are lived in by their owners, so the person calling usually holds the homeowners policy and approves the work.
