How Sewage Backup Flood Water Removal Works in Exeter

1. Remove the standing water

   Extraction limits how much additional water enters porous finishes.

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

   Daily checks show whether wet framing is moving toward its drying goal.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Mold can start growing within 24 to 48 hours on wet materials. Removing standing water quickly gives the drying crew a better chance to limit prolonged dampness.

• Keep people and pets out; avoid touching the wastewater.
• Avoid water near electrical equipment.
• Keep children and pets clear.
• Move small belongings to dry ground if safe.
• Photograph the damage before moving items.
