Too much ground water
This was a flooded basement in Amityville New York. After two days of drizzle the clouds opened up depositing to much water for the ground to handle. The water starting coming up from the concrete floor, the homeowner put a couple of towels on it thinking the worst was done and went to bed. He woke up the next morning to his whole basement under water, the started to put water in pails, the more he did, the more it came back. He then decided to calla professional, he called us in to evaluate, we felt the water had risen to the max and started to pup the water out of the affected area, when we could not pump anymore we brought in our extractor and removed the remaining water. The concrete floor and the bottom of the walls were still wet so we installed the proper equipment to completely dry out the entire basement.
