Residential Restoration

Basement Sump Pump Failure During Heavy Rain

Lodi, NJ • Completed April 2024

A Lodi homeowner discovered their basement flooding after their sump pump failed during heavy spring rain. The finished basement had carpeting, drywall, and family recreation space that was quickly becoming saturated. Years of debris had clogged the pump's intake, causing it to burn out at the worst possible time. We extracted the standing water, removed the damaged materials, and installed a new sump system with battery backup and alarm monitoring. The homeowner learned the importance of regular sump pump maintenance.

  • Emergency water extraction from finished basement (800 gallons)
  • Removed water-damaged carpet and lower drywall sections
  • Installed new sump pump with battery backup system
  • Added high-water alarm with smartphone notifications

We Know Jersey Weather

Nor'easters, flash floods from summer storms, and freeze-thaw cycles that crack foundations— we've seen what North Jersey weather throws at homes. Your basement flooded when that storm drain backed up? We've been there. We know the drill.

🏗️

Local Construction Styles

Split-levels from the '60s, century-old Victorians, garden apartments, and newer townhomes— Bergen County has them all. We know which basements leak, which crawl spaces need work, and how to navigate tight Jersey properties where the trucks barely fit.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers for Lodi residents

Does proximity to the Saddle River increase basement flooding in Lodi?

Yes, homes in Lodi that are close to the Saddle River often experience a higher risk of basement flooding due to rising groundwater during heavy rains. Our comprehensive solution for Lodi homeowners includes installing interior drainage systems to manage seepage, upgrading sump pumps to handle higher volumes, and sealing foundation penetrations. These measures are vital for protecting the finished lower levels that are common in many Lodi homes.

Do you help Lodi homeowners who have repeated storm claims?

Absolutely. For Lodi homeowners who face recurring water damage, we provide not only restoration but also long-term mitigation plans. This includes providing thorough documentation for your current claim and recommending permanent solutions like battery backup sump pumps, installing backwater check valves to prevent sewer backups, and making grading improvements to direct water away from your Lodi home's foundation.

What happens if my flooring has swelled after a leak in Lodi?

The type of flooring determines if it can be saved. In Lodi, we often find that luxury vinyl plank can be salvaged if addressed quickly, but laminate flooring that has swelled will almost always require replacement. In either case, our priority is to thoroughly dry the subfloor to prevent mold growth before installing any new flooring, ensuring a durable and safe surface for your Lodi home.

Can the musty odors from water damage be fully removed?

Yes, complete odor removal is a key part of our service in Lodi. We use a combination of HEPA air filtration to clean the air, commercial-grade dehumidification to remove excess moisture, and professional antimicrobial treatments on all affected surfaces. This multi-step process effectively neutralizes the microbes that cause musty smells, leaving your Lodi home smelling fresh and clean.
