How Storm Drain Backup Into House Cleanup Works in Simpsonville

1. Assess hazards and water depth

   A crew identifies the floodwater path, sediment and wet rooms to shape the first work plan.

2. Extract standing floodwater

   Workers clear water and sediment from accessible surfaces before the detailed moisture map.

3. Remove and clean affected materials

   Workers clean salvageable hard surfaces after gross debris and damaged porous layers are gone.

   A final set of material measurements helps determine when rebuilding can begin.

• Keep children and pets away from contaminated runoff.
• Photograph the water path from a dry and safe position.
