Sewer Backup Caused by Heavy Rains in Wolf Creek?

1/3/2024 (Permalink)

We are a leading choice for storm damage restoration services in Lane County.

Our South Eugene and Florence teams are on call and ready to respond to water damage emergencies 24 hours a day in Wolf Creek. Heavy rainstorms can cause various types of property damage. Here are some of the ways heavy rainstorms can lead to property damage:

Sewer Backup: Heavy rain can overwhelm municipal sewer systems, causing sewage to back up into homes and basements. This can result in not only property damage but also health hazards due to contaminated water.

Flooding: Heavy rainfall can overwhelm drainage systems, leading to flash flooding in low-lying areas. This can result in water entering homes and buildings, causing damage to floors, walls, electrical systems, and personal belongings. Basement flooding is a common issue during heavy rainstorms.

Foundation Damage: Excessive rain can saturate the soil around a building's foundation, potentially causing it to shift or crack. This can lead to structural issues and compromised stability.

Erosion and Landslides: Heavy rain can saturate the soil and trigger erosion on sloped properties. In some cases, this erosion can lead to landslides that damage homes, structures, and the surrounding landscape. Properties located near hillsides or on unstable terrain are particularly vulnerable.
