How Well Pressure Tank Burst Cleanup Works in Cave In Rock

1. Extract standing water

   The Cave In Rock crew lifts pooled water before it moves beneath more flooring.

   The contractor exposes a wet cavity only where access is needed.

4. Dry and verify

   The crew adjusts equipment if one part of the room stops improving.

• Keep people out of water near pump controls or electrical equipment.
• Call a well technician to isolate and repair the failed equipment.
• Move dry valuables away from the spreading water without crossing a hazard.
• Photograph visible damage from a safe position, then call for extraction.
