Absolutely. Many basement floods start with small, overlooked issues. Our technicians can perform critical preventative services like caulking around foundation penetrations, repairing faulty sump pump electrical connections, and ensuring proper drainage from appliances like your garbage disposal. Addressing these points helps mitigate the risk of water intrusion common in Chicago's older homes and during heavy rains.

We offer targeted drain and water pipe repair services to address sewer backups. Our team can inspect your plumbing system, clear blockages, and repair or replace damaged sections of pipe that may be causing the backup. For persistent issues, we also install and repair critical components like garbage disposals and sink drains correctly to prevent future clogs that contribute to sewer problems.

In homes prone to water problems, ensuring your electrical system is safe is crucial. We recommend and provide electric inspections, along with repairs or installations for ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) outlets in kitchens, bathrooms, and basements. We also ensure sump pumps and other flood-prevention appliances are on dedicated, properly functioning circuits. This protects your home from electrical hazards that can arise from moisture and flooding.
