The biggest risk of basement flooding is that it can cause serious structural damage to your home. If not addressed promptly, it can ruin the mortar in your walls, as well as your flooring, drywall, and timber. And if you don’t thoroughly remove the moisture, mould can begin to grow, which could sicken you and your family.
Certain types of water also pose a health risk to your household. Greywater, which comes from washing clothes and dishes, may contain rotting food debris and bacteria. Black water is the most dangerous kind of all. It contains raw sewage and is unsafe for an untrained person to handle.
For these reasons, it’s important to call our basement water removal service ASAP when your basement has flooded.
Why did your basement flood in the first place? One possible reason is that you have a burst pipe somewhere in your walls. Pipes are prone to rupturing when they freeze and can no longer contain the built-up water pressure.
Your basement may also flood if you live in an area with a high water table. When it rains, lakes and rivers can overflow, sending water cascading into your basement.
Sump pump failure is yet another cause of flooding disasters in basements. If you have a sump pump, it’s designed to capture water and keep it out of your basement. But if the power goes out or the sump pump breaks down, the system can no longer serve its purpose.
No matter the reason for your flooded basement, you can count on our basement flooding clean-up service to do a great job.
When you call our basement water removal service, we’ll arrive at your home ASAP. We will identify the source of the water ingress and block off your basement to prevent the damage from spreading.
Our team will shut off the water supply to your basement, if necessary, as well as the electricity. We cannot leave the power on when working as this is dangerous for our team.
Next, we will open windows and doors to provide ventilation. The more fresh air we can get into your basement, the faster it will dry out. Ventilation also cuts down on bad odours and helps to prevent mould growth.
Our experts will pump out all standing water, then clean and disinfect the basement to restore it to its original condition. We will also identify which items can be salvaged and discard all debris.
If you want to make an insurance claim for your flooded basement, we’ll provide you with a full report on our cleanup services. Additionally, we provide a hygiene report as proof that we’ve properly restored and disinfected your basement.
Once we’ve dried and restored your basement, we’ll talk to you about waterproofing solutions to prevent flooding from happening again.
Tanking is one option for waterproofing your basement. This barrier system is designed to help with problems such as rising damp, which occurs when moisture spreads up basement walls from the ground. The damp-proofing process involves applying a waterproof membrane to your exterior walls that prevents moisture from seeping in.
Our waterproofing contractors can also install a cavity drain membrane, which allows water to filter down to the slab and into a perimeter channel. From there, the water flows into a sump pump, which disposes of it through ground-level drains.
We offer structural waterproofing for both residential and commercial properties in Greater London and Essex. Contact us today to schedule service from a waterproofing specialist.
