How Window Well Flood Cleanup Works in Pace
-
Remove standing water
A crew clears accessible standing water and watches for continued inflow. Continued inflow needs source control before drying.
-
Map moisture
Moisture mapping identifies materials that still need a drying plan. Concealed saturation changes the scope of work.
-
Remove soaked material
The crew opens wet wall areas when access is needed for drying. A technician records the material taken out.
-
Dry and verify
Drying continues until measured targets are reached. The crew checks the target material itself.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives
Water left in drywall can keep a wall cavity damp. Removing unsalvageable sections gives remaining framing a better path to dry. Air movement reaches exposed framing more effectively.
- Avoid entering a room with energized wet outlets.
- Stay out of water near electrical equipment.
- Move dry belongings away from the wet area if safe.
- Photograph wet rooms and belongings.
