How Flooded Basement Water Removal Works in Rimersburg

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

   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

   Drywall that wicked water is cut above the wet edge so the framing can dry. The crew removes only what the readings call for.

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.
