Drying concrete adds both time and equipment cost. Homeowners insurance commonly covers sudden tank failure and the resulting water damage to contents and structure, subject to the deductible.
Fox Park's south-city brick homes, built 80-plus years ago, suffer basement flooding from a combination of low-lying lots and deteriorated perimeter drainage. Sump-pump failures are the leading culprit, especially when systems lack maintenance. Fox Park's low-lying terrain and poorly maintained drainage systems make basements vulnerable. Aging sump pumps compound the problem. When a water heater leaks, water spreads rapidly through foundation cracks and weak points.
