How Flooded Basement Flood Water Removal Works in Von Ormy

1. Remove the standing water

   Technicians pull water from carpet and hard surfaces after confirming safe access.

2. Map the moisture

   A technician checks wall bases and adjoining rooms for water migration.

3. Open what holds water

   Soaked padding can block drying of the floor beneath it.
