How Flooded Basement Water Removal Works in Chrisney

Porous materials such as carpet pad and ceiling tile soaked by dirty water usually come out instead of drying. Taking them out removes both the moisture and the food.

1. Remove the standing water

   If the ground outside is saturated, the crew may lower the water level in stages so the walls are not stressed.

2. Trace where the water went

   A thermal camera shows cool, wet patches behind finishes. The crew marks them and decides where the drying equipment goes.

3. Take out what cannot dry

   Porous items touched by sewage or groundwater go into bags. Hard surfaces are cleaned and treated instead.

4. Dry the structure and verify

   Air movers aim along the wall bases and across the floor. Good airflow lifts moisture out of the lower wall.
