Basement Water Extraction in the Louisville, KY Area
Too many homeowners have to deal with water in the basement. It's one of the most common problems that homeowners face, and we have physics and gravity to thank for it. Water flows downward, and your basement is the lowest floor of the house. Since water has the easiest access to your basement, that's the first place you're going to find water when a disaster happens. Even though it's such a common problem, water in the basement can be confusing and alarming. At ANR Restoration, we know how unnerving this situation can be, and that's why we're here to help.
Where Does the Water Come From?
If you've ever stepped into your basement only to find yourself ankle-deep in water, then you know what it's like to be completely confused. Why in the world is this water here? Water can get into your basement for several different reasons. Usually, unexpected water in the basement comes up from the ground. The soil surrounding your house contains water, and the more saturated that soil gets, the more likely it is for water to flow into your basement. The water gets in through cracks in the floor or the walls.
Of course, a basement can flood for other reasons, too. Sometimes, a pipe from above can leak, causing the water to pool in your basement. However, if a pipe is the culprit, you'll probably recognize it quickly. Likewise, if water shows up thanks to a recent flood, you'll know why the water showed up. If your basement has any windows, water can sometimes leak into your basement that way.
No matter the source of the water, you want it out of your basement before it causes bigger problems. For the best water extraction results, call ANR Restoration.

At ANR Restoration, we give the same advice for all types of pooling water. Don't panic, but try to follow these steps as quickly as possible. First, make sure that your family members stay away from the water because it can be dangerous. Floodwater is the most dangerous type of water. It's virtually guaranteed to contain gasoline, sewage, bacteria, or other types of contaminants. Even if it looks fine, it's probably hiding toxins. Groundwater and regular rainwater are far less dangerous, but they can still contain dangerous substances. It's a good idea to minimize your risk by keeping the family – especially children – away from it.
Next, if the basement gets any electric or gas power, turn it off. If the water has risen high enough to reach power sources, you may risk electrocution by being near it.
Finally, call us here at ANR Restoration. We'll get rid of the standing water as quickly and as safely as possible. Even if it's the middle of the night, you can reach us via our emergency line. We know disasters don't wait for a convenient time, so we're ready for you whenever you need us.
Basement Water Extraction
Once our team from ANR Restoration arrives, we'll assess the situation and then get to work right away. We use the most advanced equipment and techniques to get the water out of your basement. After we've finished extracting the water, we'll complete the drying process. We can also help with mold remediation. Having standing water in your basement is a recipe for mold growth, and mold multiplies, so it's best to take care of that situation right away. While we're at it, we can check for water damage, too. If you do have water damage – for example, if you have a carpeted basement and need to have those carpets cleaned – we have services for that.
Don't Do It Yourself
When you have standing water in your basement, you shouldn't try to deal with the situation alone. While you can undoubtedly find a water pump at your local hardware store, the types of tools that professionals use are far more advanced.
We already mentioned the harmful substances that could be in your basement water. You may risk illness and other harm by handling the water yourself. Professional water removal specialists have the equipment that they need to deal with this water safely, avoiding disease and injury.
Furthermore, homeowners don't always recognize the extent of a problem before they try to fix it. For example, a homeowner might get rid of standing water only to realize that he or she now has an enormous mold problem. These situations tend to leave homeowners overwhelmed and exhausted.
