How Flooded Basement Water Removal Works in Wartburg

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

   As the level drops, the crew watches for hazards the water was hiding: nails, broken glass and loose stair treads.

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

   Porous items touched by sewage or groundwater go into bags. Hard surfaces are cleaned and treated instead.

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.
