What Gutter and Downspout Overflow Water Cleanup Includes in Badger
A Badger crew uses meters during gutter and downspout overflow water cleanup to find water beneath visible surfaces. Air movers and dehumidifiers then dry the exposed structure.
A blocked gutter or short downspout drops roof runoff beside the foundation. Water can move through a basement wall, window well, or sill joint. The visible puddle may show only part of the wet area because basement wall finishes, carpet pad, trim, and stored boxes hold hidden moisture.
Water beneath a floor does not disappear when a pipe is fixed. Restoration specialists measure its spread and open trapped areas where needed.
