Our Proven 6-Step Basement Flooding Process
Pump the Water and Get the Sump Working
We clear standing water with our own pumps and get your sump running again, or set a temporary pump in the pit so the next storm does not undo the work. Power to the basement goes off first.
Find Out How the Water Got In
A dead sump, a backed-up floor drain, a cracked wall and a leaking water heater each leave different signs. We trace the entry point, because it decides whether the water is clean or contaminated and how your claim is written.
Remove What Cannot Be Dried
Carpet pad, the bottom of the drywall and soaked insulation usually come out. We cut above the wet line, photograph every piece before it goes, and keep whatever can be dried in place.
Clean and Disinfect Where Needed
If the water came through a floor drain or sat for days, we clean and disinfect the concrete, the framing and anything we keep. Clean water from a burst line needs far less, and we tell you which applies.
Dry the Slab, Walls and Framing
Dehumidifiers and air movers run day and night. We read the concrete, the bottom plates and the wall cavities every day, and the equipment stays on until each reading hits its dry target.
Rebuild the Finished Space
Drywall, trim, flooring and paint go back in, matched to what you had. You and your adjuster get the same photos, readings and line-item scope.

Water from a failed sump pump or a backed-up drain is usually excluded from a standard homeowners policy unless you added a water backup endorsement. Check your declarations page, or send us a photo of it and we will find the line with you.

A burst pipe or a water heater that suddenly fails is the kind of loss most policies cover. We document it room by room and bill your carrier directly for the cleanup.

Groundwater that seeps through the foundation is often treated differently again. We write down what we find exactly as it is, so you and your adjuster work from the same facts.
