How Window Well Flooding Flood Water Removal Works in Glencoe

1. Remove the standing water

   Basement pump-out lowers the water so materials can be assessed.

2. Map the moisture

   Moisture readings establish where drying equipment must work.

3. Open what holds water

   Soaked padding can block drying of the floor beneath it.

4. Dry and verify

   Daily checks show whether wet framing is moving toward its drying goal.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

After rain enters a wall cavity, insulation can hold water against framing. Technicians open affected areas when needed to support drying.

• Move away from wet basement outlets and stop water entry when safe.
• Avoid water near electrical equipment.
• Keep children and pets clear.
• Move small belongings to dry ground if safe.
• Photograph the damage before moving items.
