How Flood Water Removal and Structural Drying Works in Ossining

1. Remove the standing water

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

2. Map the moisture

   Moisture readings establish where drying equipment must work.

3. Open what holds water

   Wet drywall sections may be removed to expose the cavity.

4. Dry and verify

   Equipment placement changes when measurements reveal a stubborn area.

• 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.
