Basement Flooding FAQs

Is it safe to go into a flooded basement?

Only if it's safe from electrical hazards. If the water level has reached electrical outlets, the fuse box, or any appliances, stay out and call us. We'll advise you on the phone and shut off power safely when we arrive.

Will insurance cover basement flooding?

It depends on the cause. Most policies cover sudden water damage like burst pipes or appliance failures. Groundwater flooding typically requires separate flood insurance. Sump pump failure may be covered with an endorsement. We document everything for your insurance claim.

Can basement flooding cause mold?

Yes - basements are high-risk for mold growth. Limited ventilation, dark spaces, and porous materials like drywall create ideal conditions. Mold can begin growing within 24-48 hours. Our fast response and thorough drying is critical. If mold is discovered, our IICRC-certified team provides complete mold remediation.

How long does basement drying take?

Typically 3-5 days with industrial equipment. Concrete floors take longer to dry than other surfaces. We monitor moisture levels daily and only remove equipment when readings confirm complete drying.

My sump pump failed - can you help?

Yes. We provide immediate water extraction and bring portable pumps to remove standing water. We'll coordinate with plumbers for sump pump replacement. Consider a battery backup sump pump to prevent future failures during power outages.

Should I try to pump out the water myself?

Only if it's safe and you have proper equipment. Home wet/dry vacuums can help with minor flooding. For significant water, professional submersible pumps are much faster. The key is also proper drying afterward - removing water isn't enough without thorough structural drying.

How fast can you respond?

Our average response time in the Canton area is 45 minutes. We dispatch crews 24/7 for basement emergencies. Call (330) 993-3161 and we'll have a team on the way immediately.
