Basement flooding is often caused by poor exterior drainage, a failing sump pump, or cracks in the foundation. Our water damage cleanup team can remove the standing water and help identify the source to prevent future water damage.

A Category 3 water loss involves grossly contaminated water, such as sewage backups or floodwaters from outside. It contains dangerous pathogens. This type of water damage cleanup requires specialized training, full PPE, and extensive decontamination protocols.

First, if it's safe to do so, turn off the main water valve to stop the source of the flooding. Then, shut off electrical power to the affected areas. Finally, call Prime Water Damage Restoration for emergency water damage mitigation before the water causes structural issues.

If the water is from a clean source (like a broken pipe) and affects a small area, you can usually stay. However, if there is a sewage backup, severe mold remediation needed, or electrical hazards, our team at Prime Water Damage Restoration will advise you on whether temporary relocation is safer.
