-
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.
-
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.
-
Take out what cannot dry
Carpet pad soaked by dirty water is cut out and bagged. Carpet itself may be saved or discarded depending on the water category.
-
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.
- Stay out of the basement, since power can return while the water is still there
- Turn off the main breaker only if the panel is dry and you can reach it standing on dry ground
- Run any generator outdoors, far from windows and doors, never in a basement or garage
- Photograph the pit, the waterline and the damage with your phone light
- Carry valuables up only if the stairs and floor are dry and safe
