How Tile and Subfloor Water Damage Water Cleanup Works in Lorimor

1. Remove standing water

   Pumps clear deep water in a Lorimor basement, followed by extractors for the thin layer left on floors.

2. Find absorbed moisture

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

3. Remove what cannot stay

   Dirty water on porous materials changes the work: contaminated pieces usually come out.

4. Dry and verify

   Air movers encourage evaporation while dehumidifiers capture moisture from the air.
