After that storm, the mayor of Grosse Pointe Farms estimated that about 1,300 homes there flooded on June 26, and Grosse Pointe Park saw flooding again weeks later. Grosse Pointe Farms then planned a sewer project that the mayor said should remove about 35% more rain water from the system. Whatever the project delivers, a basement can still take on water when sewers are overwhelmed.
Flooded finished basements need fast action: extraction, removal of wet carpet and drywall, and drying before mold takes hold. In winter, burst pipes and ice add their own losses. We document damage with photos and moisture readings so your insurance and any municipal claim have a clear record.
How We Handle Losses in Grosse Pointe
Lake St. Clair weather, heavy cloudbursts, sewer backups through floor drains, sump pump failures during power outages and winter freezes are the losses we prepare for in the Grosse Pointes. A backwater valve and a battery-backed sump pump can reduce repeat backups.
Mold usually follows water in Grosse Pointe homes. A basement that took on water and was not dried to verified targets, a slow leak inside a wall, or a crawl space that stays damp through a humid summer can grow mold within days. We contain the area, remove affected materials, HEPA clean, and correct the moisture source. After a fire, we board up, remove firefighting water from the basement, clean soot, and treat smoke odor in ductwork and wall cavities so it does not return. Storm calls in Grosse Pointe usually mean roof tarping, board-up, and drying ceilings and walls after wind-driven rain or ice dams. Every job is documented with photos and daily moisture readings, which your adjuster can review and which show when the structure is actually dry.
