The longer water is allowed to sit, the more damage the water will do to your homes building materials and contents. With basement flooding, a rapid water extraction and clean up is critical to avoid long term property and content damage. Basement flooding is also dangerous, as this water is most often contaminated with biological contaminants such as dangerous bacteria such as E Coli.
