The visible puddle may show only part of the wet area because basement finishes, stored contents, joists, and crawl space soil hold hidden moisture.

Outside storm water requires a different source solution from indoor plumbing. Once entry stops, mitigation workers remove standing water and inspect absorbent materials.
