How Flooded Basement Water Removal Works in Negaunee

Wet cardboard, books and fabric are among the first things mold uses. Carrying them to a dry place slows the problem while the crew handles the water.

1. Remove the standing water

   Submersible pumps go in at the lowest spot, and hoses carry the water to a drain or a yard away from the foundation.

2. Trace where the water went

   A thermal camera shows cool, wet patches behind finishes. The crew marks them and decides where the drying equipment goes.

3. Take out what cannot dry

   Drywall that wicked water is cut above the wet edge so the framing can dry. The crew removes only what the readings call for.

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.

Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan

Owner-occupied homes make up about 85% of the occupied housing in the ZIP codes listed for Negaunee. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Negaunee was built in the 1960s. Window wells in these homes are often shallow. They fill with leaves first and with water in a downpour.

Deep frost can crack sump discharge lines. A pump that runs into a frozen pipe has nowhere to push the water. In an owner-occupied home, the sump pump, water heater and washer are all the owner's to maintain. After a flood, each one gets checked by its own trade.
