Residential Flooding - Lily Lake, IL 60151

Floods can collect anywhere in your property. Even so, it is a most difficult problem to deal with when it gathers in a person's basement.

Basements keep everything from tools, aged home furniture and possessions, and even paint and other chemical based substances. Each one of these may mix in the flood water, creating more harmful compounds. For this reason it will always be essential for us to go in to floodwater with all the proper gear. Waterproof and impenetrable gloves and footwear are of utmost importance. Long sleeved clothing and trousers will also be a necessity. Additionally, when going into a flooded basement, because of the presence of electric wires and outlets, we always switch off the power supply inside the whole structure to prevent electrocution.

In draining floodwater, we will make sure that the pump you are working with runs on a rechargeable source of energy, or from a power supply outside the home or structure you're in. Perma-Seal will be certain to drain the water gradually, about a foot every eight to twelve hours to allow the walls and other fittings to dry out and regain their durability.
