How it's done

What Capitol Hill basement flood cleanup looks like

1

Emergency Water Removal

Technicians use truck-mounted pumps to clear standing water from the basement floor. They inspect for contamination from drain backups and check the foundation walls for points of entry specific to hillside homes.

2

Targeted Structural Drying

Industrial air movers and dehumidifiers are placed to dry foundation walls, subfloor, and framing. Daily moisture readings guide the plan, ensuring all materials in the Capitol Hill home reach a dry standard.

3

Sanitation and Restoration
