Storm Flooded Basement in Ferndale, Washington

A good indication of why you have a flooded basement.

Rain.

The Pacific Northwest or Pacific NorthWET is known for gray skies and rain. SERVPRO of Bellingham is also known for dealing with rain. Well not exactly dealing with rain, but dealing with the ramifications of too much rain. 

We were called to help the new homeowner of a beautiful gentleman's farm in Ferndale, WA. They were experiencing flood waters in the finished basement and an overwhelmed sump pump. 

We knew exactly what the problem was when we arrived. The driveway was pitted out with mud puddles and the field looked like a trout pond. Our crew set up two pump with the outtake hoses stretched down the hill and into the wood below.

Once the water was extracted we set drying equipment and helped them get back to life as normal.

Next time you have a flooded basement you know who to call... SERVPRO of Bellingham.
