Lake Arbor was built starting in 1971, with about 1,000 homes. Split-level and ranch designs are common. A split-level's lower floor sits partly below ground, so it is where storm water and sewer backups end up first.
We pump the water out, remove what cannot be saved and dry the rest. You get a written estimate before work starts.
Split-Level Lower Floors Below Grade
The lower level of a split-level home sits partly underground. Water from outside or from a backed-up drain collects there.
We extract standing water, pull wet carpet and pad, and dry the walls from the floor up.
Sewer Backups Through Floor Drains
Sewage is Category 3 water. Carpet, pad and drywall it touches get removed, not cleaned.
We remove the damaged material, disinfect the area and dry what is left. Then we document it all for insurance.

Wood Paneling and Older Finishes
Many lower levels from this era have wood paneling and older carpet. Some of it can be dried. Some cannot.

Getting the Lower Level Back in Use
Drying usually takes 3 to 5 days with air movers and dehumidifiers. We take readings every day.
When the readings say dry, repairs start. Closing up a wall too early traps water and starts mold.
