Flooding is considered to be one of the top concerns of home owners.  Your basement and or crawlspace is utilized for storage, entertainment, and utilities.   Having gallons of rain water or waste water sitting in your home is an unfortunate event.  We never like to see people have such unfortunate events so we created some helpful tips to prevent any flooding issues that may arise.

  1. Make sure your sump pit is clear of any large objects that may jam the motor or not allow the switch to engage.
  2. Make sure your pump is no older than 15 years old if so consider replacing it to prevent the old one from unexpectedly stop working.
  3. Install a battery back up pump in addition to your existing pump.
  4. Install a water level alarm system with phone out capabilities that can alert you if the water is to high when you are not home.
  5. Make sure gutter down spouts lead water away from your foundation.
  6. Installing drain tile underground outside of your home will also prevent water from rolling back into your basement.
