Basements flood differently than the rest of the house, and the cleanup has to account for that.

Sump pump died during the spring melt. Three inches across our finished basement. They pumped it, pulled the carpet pad, cut the drywall at two feet, and had it dry in five days.

FAQ

What Homeowners Ask About Basement Water

Common causes include a failed sump pump or float switch, a clogged discharge line, heavy rain on saturated soil, a backed-up floor drain, or a new foundation crack. The contractor can help identify the source.

Clean water and quick action can save it. Drain backups usually mean replacement.

Most basements dry in three to seven days, since concrete releases moisture slowly.

If water reached the burners, controls, or wiring, do not run them until a qualified HVAC tech or plumber inspects them.

Coverage varies by cause. Sump backup often requires an add-on, so check with your agent.

No. A Water Damage is a free referral service that connects you with independent, licensed and insured local contractors who do the work.
