2/18/2020 (Permalink)
Most flooding that occurs in your basement happens during a heavy rainfall. However, we are here to tell you that it can happy at any time for various reasons that you may not think of.
Basements are unfortunately prone to flooding since they are the lowest level of a building and are built partly or entirely below ground level.
Here are a few reasons why your basement could flood:
- A Water supply-line break
- Hot water tank failure
- Foundation drainage issues
- Sewer backup
- Heavy rains pooling around your home
- Blocked or failed sewer pipe
Flood water should be handled quickly and properly. If it sits for an extended period of time it can jeopardize your health and safety as well as cause severe damage to your home's integrity.
