Over the years I have dried out many many basements from either sewer back ups, water lines freeze and break or hot water heaters just reaching the end of their lives.
If you don't want me to have to come dry out your house after you just got from vacation or a long work trip their are a few simple safety precautions you can take and they are: If you have a toilet that is running' fix it. If you main sewer line is older and has to be "rooted out" regularly a running toilet could back it up when your not home and come back to a pool in your basement. If you have indoor plumbing at all the simplest prevention that I had personally never even thought about but after cleaning for a local plumber I discovered is simply to turn off your water supply line on the in side of your house where if comes through your basement wall. That simple 10 second turn of a valve can save all sorts of headaches and heartaches. See Ya next time, Brian Asher [email protected] or www.kansas-city-carpet-furniture-cleaning.com
