The crew does not repair pipes, pumps or appliances. It removes water, dries the structure and keeps records, and it works alongside whichever trade fixes the cause.

How Power Outage Flooded Basement Water Removal Works in Prescott Valley
-
Remove the standing water
If the ground outside is saturated, the crew may lower the water level in stages so the walls are not stressed.
-
Trace where the water went
Readings from an unaffected room become the dry reference. The crew dries wet materials toward that number.
-
Take out what cannot dry
Carpet pad soaked by dirty water is cut out and bagged. Carpet itself may be saved or discarded depending on the water category.
-
Dry the structure and verify
Dehumidifiers and air movers run around the clock. LGR or desiccant units pull moisture out of the cool basement air.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives
A closed-up basement traps humid air. Opening windows during a storm can add moisture, so the crew controls humidity with dehumidifiers and air movers instead.
- Stay out of the basement, since power can return while the water is still there
- Turn off the main breaker only if the panel is dry and you can reach it standing on dry ground
- Run any generator outdoors, far from windows and doors, never in a basement or garage
- Photograph the pit, the waterline and the damage with your phone light
- Carry valuables up only if the stairs and floor are dry and safe
