Water is not properly diverted away from the home. Water enters basement from seam between first floor and basement, trickling indoors alongside the foundation. We are told we need a grading diverting the water away from the home.

Choosing A Water Damage Restoration Company
It's easy when you have a flood damaged property on your hand, to panic and call the first name you find in the Yellow Pages. This can actually do more harm than good. Getting water restoration service processes underway is important, but it's equally important to find the right person for the job. Water and flood restoration involve specialized processes that make use of technology and man power to limit the damage to the structure from the water, inhibit the growth of mold and mildew, including dangerous black mold, and then restoring your possessions to their former pre flood state. All these techniques call for a mix of expertise and experience, and only reputed professional water damage restoration contractors can give you the 100 percent results that you need.
Your flood damage restoration contractor should have all licensing requirements in place. He should be a member of professional organizations in his industry, and must be bonded and licensed. Ask how many years of experience in flood damage restoration he has. Does he have experience handling water damage restoration service projects of the sort that you are in need of? If his experience includes smaller leakage and danger problems, then he might not qualify to handle large scale restoration projects. Ask him if he is going to sub contract parts of the project to others. If he will, then these sub contractors too should be thoroughly familiar with water restoration processes, so all these processes can work in harmony. A local water extraction service contract is always preferred to an outside company, because he will have experience handling the specific weather and environment conditions that affect the mitigation process.
Once you have asked all questions and have short listed a couple of contractors, make your choice by verifying all the information that he has given you. Does he have certification from the Water Loss Institute or the Cleaning and Restoration Certification? Check your local Better Business Bureau and look for endorsements of his service, or any pending complaints against him. Ask for a list of references and call these people. Finally, ask him for a written estimate of his services. He should absolutely be able to provide you with a written quote for the project.
