Signs to Check in Pines Lake Homes

What you see is a clue, not a diagnosis: the same damp patch could come from a roof leak, from rainwater finding its way in, or from a pipe that is still leaking.

After the visit, the work is talked through with you, and the method used is confirmed on the call — this page does not promise a particular method for any home in Pines Lake.
How to Prepare for a Basement Water Damage Visit in Pines Lake
Preparing ahead makes the visit quicker and more thorough. What is needed depends on the problem and the rooms involved, and the steps below fit most homes in Pines Lake.
- Clear the way to the basement — move furniture, rugs, boxes and stored items away from wet floors and damp walls where you can do so safely — so the visit can start without moving things first.
- Take valuables, electronics and soft furnishings off wet floors and out of the damp basement where you can do so safely, and take photographs of the damage before anything is moved.
- Sewage water is not something to clean up yourself; keep out of the room and leave it for the visit. Keep children and pets out of the affected room.
- If the problem is in a rental home, let the landlord or property manager know as well — the visit is easier to plan when the person responsible for the property knows what is happening.
Never step into a flooded basement, and never touch electrics in or near standing water.
