Basement flooding from snowmelt runoff
Why it happens here
Hillcrest sits higher than surrounding areas, so snowmelt from Crestview Trail and the slopes above runs downhill and pools against foundations. Window wells fill, sump pumps fail, and water enters basements in Hillcrest South and Summit.
Our approach
We pump out standing water, extract from carpet and pad, and set drying equipment along the foundation wall. We check the sump pump and recommend drainage fixes so the same problem does not return next spring.
