What Gray Water Cleanup Includes in Arriba
A Arriba crew uses meters during gray water cleanup to find water beneath visible surfaces. Air movers and dehumidifiers then dry the exposed structure.
A used-water drain or washer discharge that spreads indoors can soak floor finishes, porous furniture, trim and low wallboard. Surface mopping leaves water inside these materials. A plumber or the appropriate trade fixes the source; a cleanup crew dries the damage. Call Water Cleanup Team USA at (888) 578-6508.
If a supply valve is safe to reach, closing it limits fresh water. The plumber handles the faulty fitting and the cleanup crew handles extraction and structural drying.

- Avoid wet outlets and turn off power only from a dry location.
- Photograph floor finishes before moving affected items.
- Keep children and pets away from standing or dirty water.
- Move dry valuables out of the path without walking through water.
