A plumber or the appropriate trade fixes the source; a cleanup crew dries the damage. Call Water Cleanup Team USA at (888) 578-6508.

How Standing Water Pump Out and Cleanup Works in Hanahan

1. Remove standing water

   Portable units reach upper rooms where truck mounted equipment cannot be placed close to the loss.

2. Find absorbed moisture

   Wall bases get checked after extraction because drywall can wick water above the floor mark.

3. Remove what cannot stay

   Swollen drywall that has lost strength may need a controlled cut to expose framing.

4. Dry and verify

   A clear drying log helps explain when the structure was ready for rebuild work.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Stopping the source limits new water, but it does not dry existing saturation. The extraction crew removes liquid water and measures the materials left behind.

• 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.
