A flood, backup or major leak leaving pooled water indoors can soak flooring, slab, wall bases, contents and lower rooms. Surface mopping leaves water inside these materials. A plumber or the appropriate trade fixes the source; a cleanup crew dries the damage. Call Water Cleanup Team USA at (888) 578-6508.
Cleanup starts after the source is controlled. A local water crew pumps, tests material moisture and places drying equipment, while the appropriate trade corrects the cause.

How Standing Water Pump Out and Cleanup Works in Westby

- Stop the water at a safe shutoff if the source is inside.
- Avoid wet outlets and turn off power only from a dry location.
- Photograph flooring before moving affected items.
- Keep children and pets away from standing or dirty water.
- Move dry valuables out of the path without walking through water.
