I've always gone to the equipment rental place and gotten a couple commercial dehumidifiers and massive fans if it's flooded in a finished area.
When the wife brings home a some monkey looking thing and tells you. "It's yours to train and babysit" but yet you can't remember to eat yourself or when to bathe?

That's all I've ever done. When you say big dehumidifier, you talking one you rented? Or a residential one?

Yeah big commercial
Good old First World Problems, like not being able to find 40/1 mix oil for your chainsaw so you grab a 50/1 for 2.5 gallons of fuel and only add 2 gallons.

First world problem is when the landscaper quits.
HA!
My lakehouse flooded. Fortunately only an inch or so of water. Looks like that new flooring is coming a few years early. anyone got minor flood clean up advice? I ripped out all the trim and carpet. Cutting away bottom of drywall, more if it had moist insulation. Got a ton of those floor dryer fans, small dehumidifier pumping in the bedrooms and a big ass dehumidifier in the main area. Carpet and pad is outside already. Anything else I should be doing?

Landscaper? No, out here we cut our own firewood. I could buy it, but I enjoy cutting down trees.
I was talking to first worlders...HA!
What? Don’t enjoy a roaring fire on occasion? lol I only have to break out the firewood if we get below 20 degrees over here.
actually, I love that.
Shoot me a pm with your telephone number. Our entire town flooded in August of 2016. I had 5 feet of water in my house. I own a residential construction business and can tell you lots of things to look at.
