How Basement Water Pump Out and Removal Works in Ivins

1. Remove the standing water

   Water from a sewer backup is handled in gloves, boots and protective clothing, and the discharge goes where local rules allow.

2. Trace where the water went

   The technician checks wall bases, door frames and the slab edge with a moisture meter. The readings show how far the water traveled.

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

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

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Mold can start growing within 24 to 48 hours on wet materials. A basement holds drywall, carpet, wood and cardboard, which gives it plenty to feed on.

• Stay out of the water until the power is checked, since wet outlets, cords and the panel are a shock risk
• Do not run the furnace or water heater while the water is high
• Skip the rented pump if the water is deep, because pumping too fast can damage walls
• Move valuables up and photograph the waterline before the water drops
• Note when the water arrived and how deep it got
