Record Snow Pack In Utah May Lead To Flooding And Water Damage
It’s Not Too Late To Get Flood Insurance

Salt Lake City, Utah, 4/27/2011 — The snow pack in most of Utah is greater than the levels at the same time in 1983, the year of the infamous floods. This condition does not insure that there will be wide spread flooding, but if the weather continues to be wet and cold adding to the snow pack, the sudden temperature raise can cause the runoff to be very high. Another contributing factor is the water soaked ground. When the ground is soaked, it is unable to absorb the additional runoff.

Also, when the ground is soaked, the pressure from the ground water is finding it’s way into many basements that have not had water problems before. Ground water is hard to “turn off”. A sump pump is the common method of dealing with ground water problems. If your neighbors have sump pumps and you don’t, you may want to consider getting one, fast! If the water is already coming into your basement, deal with the water damage the best you can while you scramble to have a sump pump installed. If you have a sump pump, make sure your home owners insurance covers a sump pump problem or failure. Beware of caps on this coverage, and add more coverage if necessary.

Normal home owners insurance will cover water damage events that originate inside the home, but not surface or ground water that enters the home. This coverage is available as a separate policy. It is called flood insurance and is underwritten by the federal government. Most insurance agents sell flood insurance. These are your options to protect you against the possible damage from flooding. Evaluate your situation and location and act quickly. There will be thousands of homes affected over the next few weeks.

I recently had a small leak in my house and as a carpet cleaner I was able to bring home my carpet cleaning van and suck out the water in the carpet. For small amouts of water leakage you could suck it out and then put a fan on it to dry fast. This worked great until the leak came back and the carpet was really saturated and needed to move from a small carpet cleaning job to a flood clean up. We live in a appartment and the landlord insisted taking care of the job right. The carpet had to be pulled back in one room and the pad had to be removed as it was way to saturated. Fans were put in and we dried the all wood moldings and framing, and the carpet was dried in hours. The key is to dry out the carpet and prevent mold or mildew from growing in your walls or exposed areas. Our company “The flood company” can take care of any small flood to any size commercial building water comming out the front door. No job to big or small
