How Flooded Basement Water Removal Works in Gladwyne
A closed-up basement traps humid air. Opening windows during a storm can add moisture, so the crew controls humidity with dehumidifiers and air movers instead.
-
Remove the standing water
As the level drops, the crew watches for hazards the water was hiding: nails, broken glass and loose stair treads.
-
Trace where the water went
The technician checks wall bases, door frames and the slab edge with a moisture meter. The readings show how far the water traveled.
-
Take out what cannot dry
Drywall that wicked water is cut above the wet edge so the framing can dry. The crew removes only what the readings call for.
-
Dry the structure and verify
On each visit the technician reads the same marked spots again. Falling numbers mean the plan works, and flat numbers mean the plan changes.
