How Storm Water Removal Works in Geneva

A clean-looking surface can hide damp backing after runoff. Technicians check the assembly before they decide how to dry it.

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

   Equipment may move as materials release water at different rates. Final measurements support the dry-out record.
