This crawlspace flooded due to major storms producing heavy rains

An unexpected massive summer storm can bring heavy rain and damaging winds at any time.  8 inches of rain fell in a 36 hour period and for this unfortunate White Pigeon, Michigan homeowner it caused their crawlspace to flood.  If you have issues with rain water infiltrating your basement or crawlspace be sure to check the grade of the ground outside your home and check that your gutters are clean of leaves and debris.  Fixing these two simple issues can help reduce water from getting in your basement or crawlspace during heavy rains.  If this happens to you, call SERVPRO of Cass & St. Joseph Counties to extract the water and start the drying process to prevent further damage from happening.  SERVPRO of Cass & St. Joseph Counties can help make it "Like it never even happened."
