How Window Well Flood Cleanup Works in Copen

1. Remove standing water

   The technician begins with the rooms holding the most water. Electrical hazards are addressed before wet-room access.

2. Map moisture

   A damp ceiling may reveal water from a room above. Lower ceilings may carry water from upstairs.

3. Remove soaked material

   The crew opens wet wall areas when access is needed for drying. A technician records the material taken out.

4. Dry and verify

   Final checks document the remaining structure after extraction. Records can explain the work to an insurer.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

Warm, humid conditions can slow evaporation. A controlled drying setup removes moisture from both materials and indoor air. Repeated checks show whether the setup needs adjustment.

• Avoid entering a room with energized wet outlets.
• Stay out of water near electrical equipment.
• Move dry belongings away from the wet area if safe.
• Photograph wet rooms and belongings.
• Call Flood Cleanup Response Team at (888) 471-9821, 24/7, and describe the window well water.
