Adjusters often want to see the cause repair and the water removal records side by side. Keeping the plumber's invoice with the crew's moisture logs makes the claim file easier to follow.

How Washer Flooded Basement Water Removal Works in Newtown

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

   Water climbs drywall above the visible stain. The technician measures up the wall to find where the moisture stops.

3. Take out what cannot dry

   Baseboards may be pulled to let air reach the bottom of the wall. They can be put back or replaced after drying.

4. 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.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Wet cardboard, books and fabric are among the first things mold uses. Carrying them to a dry place slows the problem while the crew handles the water.

• Close both washer supply valves, and turn off the main water valve if they will not close
• Unplug the washer only if the outlet and the floor in front of it are dry
• Stay out of standing water if an outlet or cord is wet
• Photograph the washer, the hose, the valves and the waterline
• Keep the failed hose, since the plumber or the insurer may want to see it
