How Flooded Basement Water Removal Works in Shasta Lake

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

   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

   Baseboards may be pulled to let air reach the bottom of the wall. They can be put back or replaced after drying.

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.
