How Washer Flooded Basement Water Removal Works in Lewisville
-
Remove the standing water
As the level drops, the crew watches for hazards the water was hiding: nails, broken glass and loose stair treads.
-
Trace where the water went
Readings from an unaffected room become the dry reference. The crew dries wet materials toward that number.
-
Take out what cannot dry
Baseboards may be pulled to let air reach the bottom of the wall. They can be put back or replaced after drying.
-
Dry the structure and verify
Equipment comes out only when the readings match the dry reference. A dry feel to the touch is not enough proof.

What to Do Before the Crew Arrives
Drying does not undo mold that has already grown. It does stop new growth by bringing materials back to normal moisture, so the dehumidifiers keep running until the readings match.
- Close both washer supply valves, and turn off the main water valve if they will not close
- Unplug the washer only if the outlet and the floor in front of it are dry
- Stay out of standing water if an outlet or cord is wet
- Photograph the washer, the hose, the valves and the waterline
- Keep the failed hose, since the plumber or the insurer may want to see it
Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
Owner-occupied homes make up about 85% of the occupied housing in the ZIP codes listed for Lewisville. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Lewisville was built in the 1940s. Many early basements have old cisterns, coal chutes or rough corners. Those openings can let in groundwater and storm runoff.
A pipe that freezes and splits can flood a basement in winter too. The plumber fixes the pipe and the crew removes the water.
