What Flooded Basement Flood Cleanup Includes in Unity
Every flooded basement flood cleanup loss has its own water path. In Unity, the crew maps moisture and removes water from affected surfaces. The actual water source determines the first cleanup steps.
With flooded basement, a basement can flood from rain, a burst pipe, a drain backup or a failed sump. Moisture may remain in flooring, lower drywall, insulation and contents.
A plumber may find the broken supply component, but the leak can spread across several rooms. Moisture readings reveal the cleanup boundary. Adjacent finishes are checked for swelling and trapped water.

- Move dry belongings away from the wet area if safe.
- Photograph wet rooms and belongings.
