How Window Well Flooding Flood Water Removal Works in Keyes

1. Remove the standing water

   Recorded measurements set a baseline for the dry-out.

3. Open what holds water

   The technician explains material removal based on contamination and readings.

4. Dry and verify

   Drying continues after the visible puddle disappears from the floor.

• Keep children and pets clear.
