How Sump Pump Failure Flood Water Removal Works in Maximo

1. Remove the standing water

   Extraction limits how much additional water enters porous finishes.

   Hidden cavities are assessed where the water path suggests intrusion.

3. Open what holds water

   Contaminated porous materials often require careful removal.

4. Dry and verify

   The crew records progress until affected materials meet the drying plan.

• Keep clear of submerged wiring and have the pump checked by its trade.
• Avoid water near electrical equipment.
• Keep children and pets clear.
• Move small belongings to dry ground if safe.
• Photograph the damage before moving items.
