Basement Flooding

8/21/2020 (Permalink)

This basement has obvious signs of water damage.

A basement can flood at any time, although flooding most often occurs during heavy rainfall. Basements are prone to flooding because they are the lowest level of a building and are normally built partly or entirely below ground level.

If flood water is not handled quickly and properly, it can jeopardize your health and safety, and cause severe damage to your home’s structure. Remember, the longer you wait, the worse the problem will get.

There are a number of reasons why your basement could flood, including: 

• A blocked or failed sewer pipe
• Heavy rain causes surface water to pool around your home
• Storm sewer backup
• Sanitary sewer backup
• Foundation drainage failure
• Water supply-line break or hot-water tank failure
• And many more

The bottom line: a flooded basement can jeopardize your health, safety, and your home’s integrity.
