When heavy rain overloads the sanitary sewer, water can back up through basement floor drains. For City of Columbus homes, Project Dry Basement offers eligible single and two-family homes an approved backflow prevention device at no direct cost for basic installation, after a backup caused by excess rain water in the sanitary sewer is reported to the City within 24 hours. Report it to the City through 311.
The week of the May 2020 flooding, 1,600 people called Columbus Public Utilities about sewer drains and flooding, a city-wide figure that shows how many basements can be affected at once. Beyond sewer backups, groundwater seepage, failed sump pumps and burst pipes in winter all put water on northwest Columbus floors.
How We Handle Losses in Northwest Columbus
Heavy rain can overload the sanitary sewer and send water up basement floor drains, while creeks and the Olentangy River rise after prolonged storms. Reporting a backup to the City quickly matters for eligible City of Columbus homes.
Mold usually follows water in Northwest Columbus 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 Northwest Columbus 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.
