How Basement Well Line Leak Cleanup Works in Lake Fork

1. Extract standing water

   Standing water beside softener equipment is removed after electrical hazards are addressed.

• Keep clear of outlets, extension cords and equipment in the wet area.
• Call a plumber or well technician for the leaking supply pipe.
• Move dry stored belongings away from the wet wall when safe.
