How Main Water Line Break Water Cleanup Works in Grasonville

1. Remove standing water

   Pumps clear deep water in a Grasonville basement, followed by extractors for the thin layer left on floors.

2. Find absorbed moisture

   The crew compares wet material readings with a dry area of the same building.

3. Remove what cannot stay

   Insulation holding water can keep a wall cavity damp even after the surface feels dry.
