What to Do Before the Crew Arrives

- Keep everyone upstairs and away from the contaminated stairway.
- Do not walk through water to shut off basement power.
- Stop using household drains until a septic company checks the system.
- Leave wet electrical and utility equipment untouched.
- Photograph the water level from a dry, safe position.
Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
The 185 housing units across the mapped area include many floor plans, so crews assess each loss on site. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Bramwell was built in the years before 1940. Older Bramwell houses can have layers of flooring that conceal sewage beneath a recent finish. The crew checks the actual layers before selecting removal and drying.
The technician checks moisture inside the building rather than inferring conditions from the forecast.
