Do I need to leave my Indian Head Park home during the work?
Usually no. We seal the work area under negative air, so most of the Indian Head Park home stays livable. For larger jobs we will tell you if it is better to step out for a day.

Yes, flood water can carry contaminants, so porous materials that got wet are often removed rather than dried and reused.
