How Storm Water Removal Works in Dickerson Run

Water beneath a floating floor has limited evaporation paths. Opening the assembly may be necessary to address trapped moisture.

1. Establish safe access

   The first inspection marks the source and depth of the pool. Those observations shape the removal plan.

2. Remove the standing water

   When inflow continues, the crew accounts for new water while planning safe removal.

3. Address contaminated materials

   Affected insulation may be discarded so the cavity can dry. The contractor records what was removed.

4. Dry and verify

   A wet cavity can lag behind an open floor. Verification checks both instead of relying on appearance.
