A small crawlspace next to my garage filled with water during some heavy rains. I’m glad I had a shop vac - Sucked up the water until it was full, brought it outside, emptied it out, and kept repeating until all the water was gone. Had a hose siphon going at the same time, but the shop vac was a lot faster. I bought a utility pump for the next time.

It’s a small crawlspace that doesn’t seem to have any way to enter it, so I’m not even sure how to properly fix it. It seems like water is coming through the dirt into there when there’s very heavy rain (which is rare where I live)

Shop vac was just a cheap Dewalt one from Costco.
