It’s spring time and that means mud season. Fun for the kids but not so much for the parents. The kids can track mud all over the floor. But even more worrisome is the fact that water can gather and cause your basement to flood. Not just because of the rain, but also be on the lookout for when the snow melts around your house.

When your basement does flood make sure to do the following

• Elevate objects that are on the ground to ensure they do not become ruined from the moisture
• If your basement has a drain, keep an eye on it to make sure it does not become clogged with bits of dirt
• If there is no visible accumulation on the surface, chances are it has been clogged, a drain snake can unclog the pipe
