What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Dirty water carries contamination; retained hard surfaces require washing before a sanitizer can work. Drying follows that cleaning. Any residue left in a joint can interfere with treatment, so soil removal comes first.

• Keep children and pets out of the contaminated basement.
• Avoid outlets, appliances and electrical cords that touch the water.
• Stop using plumbing fixtures until a plumber addresses the blockage.
• Photograph the water level and damaged property from a dry area.
• Leave soaked carpet, pad and wallboard for the cleanup crew to assess.

Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan

Heating does not replace washing and sanitizing contaminated surfaces.
