The U.S. Geological Survey reported record peaks at Blue River and Little Blue River gages in the metro on August 21-22, 2017. Water that comes out of a creek or river carries sediment and bacteria, so a flooded basement needs cleaning and disinfection as well as drying.
Main breaks are a second threat. A KC Water main at 79th Street and Holmes Road broke in 2019 and partly collapsed the road. When a main or supply line floods a home, we extract the water, check walls and floors with moisture meters and thermal imaging, and dry to verified targets.
How We Handle Losses in South Kansas City
South Kansas City faces flash flooding along the Blue River and Little Blue River, water main breaks, severe thunderstorms with hail and wind, and winter freezes that burst pipes. Water in basements and lower levels, sump pump failure and storm damage to roofs are the losses we prepare for in this part of Missouri.
Mold usually follows water in South Kansas City 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 South Kansas City 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.
