How Storm Water Removal Works in Normal

Runoff entering twice can undo progress from the first drying cycle. Source control and water removal need to stay coordinated.

1. Establish safe access

   A basement stairway may be slippery or blocked. Workers assess access before carrying extraction tools down.

2. Remove the standing water

   Deep pools are lowered with pumping equipment. Extraction tools then address remaining liquid near floor edges.

3. Address contaminated materials

   Outside floodwater is Category 3. The crew identifies porous finishes that cannot be cleaned for safe reuse.

4. Dry and verify

   The crew monitors wet framing and subfloors over time. Visible dryness alone does not end the job.
