How Flooded Basement Water Removal Works in Lake Waccamaw

A closed-up basement traps humid air. Opening windows during a storm can add moisture, so the crew controls humidity with dehumidifiers and air movers instead.

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

   The crew sketches the basement and notes the readings room by room, which gives the insurance file a clear record.

3. Take out what cannot dry

   Wet insulation holds water against the studs and slows drying. It comes out and is bagged with the other soaked material.

4. Dry the structure and verify

   Air movers aim along the wall bases and across the floor. Good airflow lifts moisture out of the lower wall.
