How Window Well Flood Cleanup Works in Milo

1. Remove standing water

   Pumps draw down deep water so the crew can reach floors and lower walls. The crew checks whether water is still entering.

2. Map moisture

   Subfloor seams and cabinet bases receive close moisture checks. Kitchen and bath finishes can conceal wet backing.

3. Remove soaked material

   Soaked insulation is removed where it blocks proper drying. Exposed studs can then receive air movement.

4. Dry and verify

   A technician records progress before equipment is removed. Rebuild planning follows the final dry-out check.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

A dry-looking surface can hide a wet backing layer. Moisture checks help the crew locate damp materials before they sit for days. A technician compares readings as equipment runs.

• 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.
• Call Flood Cleanup Response Team at (888) 471-9821, 24/7, and describe the window well water.
