How Flooded Basement Water Removal Works in Albrightsville

Drying does not undo mold that has already grown. It does stop new growth by bringing materials back to normal moisture, so the dehumidifiers keep running until the readings match.

1. Remove the standing water

   A trash pump handles water carrying silt, leaves and grit. The crew chooses between pump types based on what the water holds.

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

   Wet insulation holds water against the studs and slows drying. It comes out and is bagged with the other soaked material.

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.
