How Flooded Basement Water Removal Works in Ocilla
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.
-
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.
-
Trace where the water went
A thermal camera shows cool, wet patches behind finishes. The crew marks them and decides where the drying equipment goes.
-
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.
-
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.
