How Ceiling Flood Water Removal Works in Floyds Knobs

1. Remove the standing water

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

2. Map the moisture

   The crew traces saturation through carpet, pad and underlying layers.

3. Open what holds water

   Soaked padding can block drying of the floor beneath it.

4. Dry and verify

   The crew records progress until affected materials meet the drying plan.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Porous drywall absorbs floodwater along its lower edge. The crew checks the depth and contamination before deciding what can remain.

• Stay clear of a bulging ceiling and ceiling fixtures, and switch power off only from a dry safe location.
• Stop the water source from a safe dry location if possible.
• Keep children and pets away from any dirty or electrically unsafe water.
• Photograph the wet area and move small dry belongings out of its path.
