What to Do Before the Crew Arrives
A basement may look clean while moisture sits inside wall bases. The crew measures those layers and starts drying after Category 3 cleaning.
- Keep the bathroom closed to children and pets.
- Stop using showers, toilets, sinks and laundry until the septic system is checked.
- Do not step into the shower or handle sewage-soaked towels.
- Avoid splashing water or using household chemicals on the spill.
- Take photos from a dry doorway if the view is safe.
Local Conditions That Shape the Drying Plan
The 352 housing units across the mapped area include many floor plans, so crews assess each loss on site. The typical home in the ZIP codes around Skykomish was built in the 1960s. Older vinyl and newer overlay flooring may hide damp backing. Porous surfaces need assessment when Category 3 water touches them.
The technician checks moisture inside the building rather than inferring conditions from the forecast.

- Photograph the overflow from a dry position.
Coverage depends on your policy, so check with your own insurer.
