How Flooded Basement Flood Cleanup Works in Correll

1. Remove standing water

   The technician begins with the rooms holding the most water. Electrical hazards are addressed before wet-room access.

2. Map moisture

   A damp ceiling may reveal water from a room above. Lower ceilings may carry water from upstairs.

3. Remove soaked material

   Damaged drywall sections can be taken out to expose wet framing. The opening is documented for later rebuilding.

4. Dry and verify

   Air movers and dehumidifiers dry materials that can stay in place. Humidity control supports evaporation from structural materials.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

• Avoid stairs into water near electrical equipment.
• Stay out of water near electrical equipment.
• Move dry belongings away from the wet area if safe.
