How Flooded Basement Water Removal Works in Tonasket

The clock starts when the water arrives, not when it is noticed. A basement that flooded while the family was away may already be past the first 48 hours.

1. Remove the standing water

   As the level drops, the crew watches for hazards the water was hiding: nails, broken glass and loose stair treads.

2. Trace where the water went

   The crew sketches the basement and notes the readings room by room, which gives the insurance file a clear record.

3. Take out what cannot dry

   Porous items touched by sewage or groundwater go into bags. Hard surfaces are cleaned and treated instead.

4. Dry the structure and verify

   On each visit the technician reads the same marked spots again. Falling numbers mean the plan works, and flat numbers mean the plan changes.

Cleanup Records for an Insurance Claim

Standard homeowners policies usually leave out flood damage, which is why a separate flood policy exists. Even flood policies often limit what they pay for in a basement. Ask the insurer which items and finishes count.

• Check the policy for a water backup endorsement
• List damaged belongings with brand, age and rough value
• Save weather reports from the day of the storm

Coverage depends on your policy, so check with your own insurer.
