How Supply Line and Sink Leak Flood Cleanup Works in Waucoma

1. Remove standing water

   Basement water is pumped out before detailed material checks. Deep pooling may hide wet contents below the surface.

2. Map moisture

   Moisture mapping identifies materials that still need a drying plan. Concealed saturation changes the scope of work.

3. Remove soaked material

   The crew opens wet wall areas when access is needed for drying. A technician records the material taken out.

4. Dry and verify

   Drying continues until measured targets are reached. The crew checks the target material itself.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Floodwater can wick into wallboard above the water mark. Early assessment shows where wet material must be opened or removed. Access openings can expose the actual wet edge.

• Close the fixture shutoff valves if safe.
• Stay out of water near electrical equipment.
• Move dry belongings away from the wet area if safe.
• Photograph wet rooms and belongings.
• Call Flood Cleanup Response Team at (888) 471-9821, 24/7, and describe the sink leak water.
