Spring thaw plus a dead sump pump is a classic basement flood. Water comes up through the floor drain, seeps through cracks, and spreads under carpet and behind finished walls. Cleaning it up properly means pumping, extracting, removing wet finishes, and drying a space that naturally holds humidity.

Pumping is just the start. The real work is pulling water from carpet and walls and drying concrete that wants to hold moisture.

Pumps take out deep water first, and extraction tools finish the carpet and edges.
Drywall and fiberglass insulation on below-grade walls are cut out above the wet line so framing and the foundation wall behind it can dry.
Concrete gives off moisture for days, so dehumidifiers keep running until the slab tests dry.
Floor drain backups can bring contaminated water. Affected areas are sanitized before drying begins.
You will learn what failed and how to prevent a repeat, such as a battery backup sump or a check valve.
