How Window Well Flooding Water Cleanup Works in Graniteville

1. Remove standing water

   Carpet and pad need more than surface wiping; a local crew presses extraction tools across the wet area.

2. Find absorbed moisture

   Wall bases get checked after extraction because drywall can wick water above the floor mark.

3. Remove what cannot stay

   Soaked carpet pad may be lifted so the floor beneath it can dry.

4. Dry and verify

   Daily readings show whether equipment placement should change as the loss dries.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Wood, plaster and concrete can hold moisture longer than carpet. Repeated measurements tell the team when dense materials are actually dry.

• Clear exterior drainage only when it is safe.
• Stay away from a window under outside water pressure.
• Move valuables away if safe.
• Photograph the source and damaged belongings.
• Avoid wet electrical fixtures and contaminated water.
