Flooded Basement in Lincolnshire Home
In April, a customer urgently called needing emergency service. While she was watching her mother’s Lincolnshire home suddenly the basement began to flood.
Sump Pump Failure Caused Flooding and Home Damage
Upon arrival, there were five inches of standing water in the basement. Our professional team quickly determined that the flooding was due to a sump pump failure.
While having the patio pressure washed, the sump pump failed and all the groundwater that had accumulated from the cleaning was going directly into the customer’s basement.

Her Basement Was Safely Dried in Three Days
Our team began the water removal process by using extractor pumps and waste pumps to remove all the water from the basement.
Once the water was completely removed, they set up air movers and dehumidifiers to dry the basement. Within three days, her basement was completely dry! Thankfully, the customer had no personal items or furniture in the basement.
The only damage was to the baseboards, drywall, and paneling. Rescue Restoration’s team did an amazing job and left the customer happy and relieved.
