How Window Well Flood Cleanup Works in Mapleton

1. Remove standing water

   Pumps draw down deep water so the crew can reach floors and lower walls. The crew checks whether water is still entering.

2. Map moisture

   The technician checks wall bases, floors, and likely hidden paths. Readings also help define the equipment layout.

3. Remove soaked material

   Carpet pad that cannot be dried safely may need to come out. Removal gives remaining wet layers a path to dry.

4. Dry and verify

   Further readings show whether the drying setup is working. A stable downward trend shows drying progress.
