Sump pump installed in a basement floor pit

Basements flood. We fix that.

Waldorf basements take on water more than people expect. Heavy summer storms overwhelm sump pumps. Mattawoman Creek rises. A water heater lets go at 2 a.m. However it happened, the cleanup is the same: get the water out, get everything dry, keep mold out.

We pump standing water, extract from carpet and concrete, and remove wet padding and damaged drywall where needed. Then we set air movers and dehumidifiers and verify with moisture meters.

Finished vs. unfinished basements

Finished basements need more care — wet drywall and insulation hide moisture that turns into mold behind the walls. We open up what must be opened, dry the cavities, and leave it ready for rebuild. Unfinished basements usually just need thorough extraction and drying.

Call (301) 679-9193. The sooner we start, the more of your basement we save.

Frequently Asked Questions

My basement has two inches of water. What do you do first?

We pump it out, then extract the rest from the floor. Then we check walls and any finished areas for soaked material, set drying equipment, and monitor until moisture readings are normal.

Do I need to throw away wet carpet?

Carpet can often be dried and saved. Carpet padding usually cannot — it holds water and grows mold fast. We pull the padding, dry the carpet and subfloor, and you can put new padding under the same carpet.

How do I stop my basement from flooding again?

Common fixes: a working sump pump with battery backup, gutters that drain away from the foundation, and grading that slopes away from the house. We handle the cleanup; a basement waterproofing contractor handles prevention.
