How Flood Water Removal and Structural Drying Works in Severance

1. Remove the standing water

   Basement pump-out lowers the water so materials can be assessed.

2. Map the moisture

   A technician checks wall bases and adjoining rooms for water migration.

3. Open what holds water

   Wet drywall sections may be removed to expose the cavity.

4. Dry and verify

   Final moisture checks support the handoff to any later rebuild work.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

After rain enters a wall cavity, insulation can hold water against framing. Technicians open affected areas when needed to support drying.

• Leave wet electrical areas alone and avoid sealing walls or floors before moisture checks.
• Stop the water source from a safe dry location if possible.
• Keep children and pets away from any dirty or electrically unsafe water.
• Photograph the wet area and move small dry belongings out of its path.
• Call (888) 399-5795 for 24/7 flood water removal.

Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
