How Sewage Backup Flood Water Removal Works in Agar

1. Remove the standing water

   Basement pump-out lowers the water so materials can be assessed.

2. Map the moisture

   Hidden cavities are assessed where the water path suggests intrusion.

3. Open what holds water

   Insulation that cannot dry safely is taken out before equipment runs.

4. Dry and verify

   Final moisture checks support the handoff to any later rebuild work.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

After rain enters a wall cavity, insulation can hold water against framing. Technicians open affected areas when needed to support drying.

• Keep people and pets out; avoid touching the wastewater.
• Avoid water near electrical equipment.
• Keep children and pets clear.
• Move small belongings to dry ground if safe.
• Photograph the damage before moving items.
