Storm Water in Basement Cleanup Questions in Wright

No. Runoff from outside is Category 3 water because it can carry sewage, soil and other contaminants. Cleanup includes appropriate material decisions and surface cleaning.
Can storm water in basement cleanup check a subfloor?
A moisture meter helps show whether water remains below the exposed finish.
