How Flooded Basement Water Removal Works in Tekonsha

Cool, damp basement air slows drying and gives mold time to take hold. Pumping and dehumidifying early takes away the moisture it needs.

1. Remove the standing water

   A trash pump handles water carrying silt, leaves and grit. The crew chooses between pump types based on what the water holds.

2. Trace where the water went

   Water climbs drywall above the visible stain. The technician measures up the wall to find where the moisture stops.

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

   Dehumidifiers and air movers run around the clock. LGR or desiccant units pull moisture out of the cool basement air.

A pipe that freezes and splits can flood a basement in winter too. The plumber fixes the pipe and the crew removes the water. Owners carry the policy and the deductible. Comparing the deductible with typical water removal costs helps in deciding whether to file.
