How Flooded Basement Water Removal Works in Dinwiddie

Cool, damp basement air slows drying and gives mold time to take hold. Pumping and dehumidifying early takes away the moisture it needs.

1. Remove the standing water

   Water from a sewer backup is handled in gloves, boots and protective clothing, and the discharge goes where local rules allow.

2. Trace where the water went

   Carpet, pad and flooring are checked from below as well as above, because a dry surface can sit over wet material.

3. Take out what cannot dry

   Carpet pad soaked by dirty water is cut out and bagged. Carpet itself may be saved or discarded depending on the water category.

4. Dry the structure and verify

   The slab dries slowly, so the crew watches it closely. Concrete can hold water long after the surface looks dry.
