How Flooded Basement Water Removal Works in Willacoochee

Mold needs moisture, food and time. A flooded basement supplies the first two at once, so the third is the only one anyone controls. Fast water removal is that control.

1. Remove the standing water

   Water from a sewer backup is handled in gloves, boots and protective clothing, and the discharge goes where local rules allow.

2. Trace where the water went

   The crew sketches the basement and notes the readings room by room, which gives the insurance file a clear record.

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

   Dehumidifiers and air movers run around the clock. LGR or desiccant units pull moisture out of the cool basement air.
