Some homeowners in Edina wait for the plumber before calling anyone else. Meanwhile the carpet, the pad and the lower drywall keep drinking. An early call to the crew cuts that waiting time.

How Washer Flooded Basement Water Removal Works in Edina

1. Remove the standing water

   Submersible pumps go in at the lowest spot, and hoses carry the water to a drain or a yard away from the foundation.

2. Trace where the water went

   The technician checks wall bases, door frames and the slab edge with a moisture meter. The readings show how far the water traveled.

3. Take out what cannot dry

   Cardboard, paper and soaked upholstery are sorted away from the work area, and the owner decides what is thrown out.

4. Dry the structure and verify

   Air movers aim along the wall bases and across the floor. Good airflow lifts moisture out of the lower wall.

• Unplug the washer only if the outlet and the floor in front of it are dry
• Stay out of standing water if an outlet or cord is wet
• Photograph the washer, the hose, the valves and the waterline
• Keep the failed hose, since the plumber or the insurer may want to see it
