What are the main local reasons for basement water damage?
One of the most common and preventable sources of water damage occurs in the summer during heavy
rainfall events. A strong thunderstorm may bring the two conditions required for sudden and catastrophic
basement damage:
1. A large flow of rainwater into your drainage system and sump pit.
2. Power outage due to lightning.
Whether homeowners are at work, travelling or at the cottage, it only takes a few moments for a sump
pit to overflow and flood your basement. Consider the following summary of various scenarios:
1. Sump system failure due to:
a) Power outages b) Float switch entanglement or malfunction
c) primary sump pump failure d) Sump system below capacity
e) frozen discharge pipes
2. Washing Machine hose rupture. 3. Leaking Hot Water Tanks.
4. Low temperature pipe rupture.

homeowners and businesses initiate the process of protecting your valuable property assets.
