How Vacant and Vacation Home Flood Water Removal Works in Old Greenwich

1. Pump or extract liquid water

   Bulk removal comes before structural drying. A deep basement calls for a different pumping approach than a thin layer across a kitchen floor.

2. Find moisture beyond the puddle

   Meters reveal damp subfloor and wall bases that eyes cannot judge. The wet map tells the team where drying equipment belongs.

3. Remove materials that hold unsafe water

   A clean water loss may allow some finishes to dry in place. The choice depends on the material, duration and measured saturation.

4. Dry the structure and confirm progress

   Dehumidification collects moisture released into the indoor air. The readings create a record of the dry-out for the property owner.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Water beneath vinyl can linger after mopping. Since a waterlogged substrate can support mold within 24 to 48 hours, technicians assess the substrate and avoid sealing moisture under a new finish.

• Shut off the water supply if safe and document the scene before cleanup.
• Keep children and pets outside the wet area.
• Photograph the source and affected materials if safe.
• Move loose belongings away from spreading water.
• Call (888) 949-8496 for 24/7 flood water removal.
