-
Remove the standing water
As the level drops, the crew watches for hazards the water was hiding: nails, broken glass and loose stair treads.
-
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.
-
Take out what cannot dry
Drywall that wicked water is cut above the wet edge so the framing can dry. The crew removes only what the readings call for.

Dry the structure and verify

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives
The EPA advises drying wet materials within 24 to 48 hours. In a flooded Grenora basement, that window is why the pump-out and the dehumidifiers go in together.
- Shut off the water source if a pipe or appliance is still feeding the flood
- Move belongings up and out of the water, starting with electronics
- Photograph the waterline, the wet materials and the damaged items
- Call early, since drying that starts sooner usually means fewer equipment days
- Skip the household vacuum, which cannot handle standing water and is a shock risk

Owner-occupied homes make up about 86% of the occupied housing in the ZIP codes listed for Grenora. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Grenora was built in the 1950s. Many early basements have old cisterns, coal chutes or rough corners. Those openings can let in groundwater and storm runoff.
Long winters freeze the ground around foundations. When the thaw arrives, meltwater has nowhere to go but toward the basement wall.
