A basement drain may soak cardboard and unfinished wood. The crew separates contaminated contents and dries the structure; damp absorbent goods can deteriorate quickly. Separate clean boxes from those that absorbed water through their bottoms.

1. Remove the overflow

   The response team clears standing water around the drain and adjoining floor. Safe photographs show where the overflow had reached.

2. Measure hidden moisture

   A dry reference area gives the crew a comparison point. The wet map then shows where equipment and access are needed.

3. Handle affected materials

   A hard concrete floor may be cleaned, but a soaked cardboard box cannot be treated the same way. The crew records what leaves the room.

4. Dry and verify

   The crew adjusts drying equipment as moisture readings change. A final record shows the condition of affected walls and floors.
