How Flooded Basement Water Removal Works in Croton On Hudson

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

   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

   Equipment comes out only when the readings match the dry reference. A dry feel to the touch is not enough proof.
