Description

We had over four feet of sewage and rainwater flood our basement. We lost over $16k worth of personal belongings and had to pay nearly $2800 for sanitization and cleanup - not to mention the additional damage of lost work time and extra childcare needed to be home taking care of this. We also likely have at least $10k more in building damage that must be fixed - our wood stairs, walls patched or replaced, repaint walls and level/seal floors from where walls/boiler were removed, etc
