Often yes, if the work area is contained and you stay out of it. People with health concerns may prefer to stay elsewhere.
What equipment is used for contaminated water removal?
Pumps and extractors, protective gear, disinfectants and air scrubbers, plus dehumidifiers, air movers and moisture meters for drying.
Is wet carpet removal always necessary after contaminated water?
