How Flood Cleanup Works in Novelty

Standing water is the visible part of a flood loss. The crew also checks hidden materials that could remain moist after pumping. Pumping alone does not dry a wall cavity.

  1. Remove standing water

    Basement water is pumped out before detailed material checks. Deep pooling may hide wet contents below the surface.

  2. Map moisture

    Readings trace water beyond the visible puddle and into adjacent rooms. A nearby dry area can provide a useful comparison.

  3. Remove soaked material

    Soaked insulation is removed where it blocks proper drying. Exposed studs can then receive air movement.

  4. Dry and verify

    The crew adjusts equipment as the wet area changes. Stubborn damp spots may need different airflow.
