Water damage in Shawnee
Shawnee stretches from established neighborhoods near downtown and Nieman Road out to newer subdivisions in the western part of the city. The older east side has many homes with basements and plumbing that have been in service for decades, while the west side has more finished basements and newer construction.
Hilly terrain and clay soils across Shawnee can direct storm water toward foundations, and older drain tile systems do not always keep up. We respond to basement flooding, burst pipes, appliance leaks, and sewer backups throughout the city.
Shut off the water source if you can do it safely. Turn off power to wet areas at the breaker. Stay out of standing water near outlets or appliances. Move small valuables to a dry area. Then call 1-888-379-6880.
