Sump Pump Failure

Water damage in homes can be caused by many different factors including burst pipes, leaking roofs, backups and overflow, and especially during storm season, sump pump failure.
In June, our team responded to a call for water damage to a basement as a result of a failed sump pump. The damage affected the entire basement level, including three bedrooms, a bathroom, a family room, and a storage & utility room.
To mitigate the problem, our technicians flood cut all rooms 2-feet high and removed the insulation as well as the flooring.
Fast action in a situation like this is the key to preventing further damage and mold growth in the home.
