How Flooded Basement Water Removal Works in Kailua Kona

-
Remove the standing water

-
Trace where the water went
The crew sketches the basement and notes the readings room by room, which gives the insurance file a clear record.
-
Take out what cannot dry
Baseboards may be pulled to let air reach the bottom of the wall. They can be put back or replaced after drying.

Dry the structure and verify
