What to Do Before the Crew Arrives
After a basement flood, insulation and drywall can hold water against framing. Mold growth can start on soaked surfaces within 24 to 48 hours, so the drying plan includes hidden cavities rather than only the floor.
- Stop the source and avoid disturbing wet plaster that is sagging.
- Keep children and pets outside the wet area.
- Photograph the source and affected materials if safe.
- Move loose belongings away from spreading water.
