Where Does a Jenison Sewer Backup Claim Go?
To the Georgetown Charter Township Clerk's Office at 1515 Baldwin Street, in writing within 45 days after the damage was discovered. The township's claim form asks for insurance details, repair receipts and photos or video of damaged items.
What Does Flooded Basement Repair Involve?
The process starts with a call or form request to the 24/7 line. When water stands near the panel or above the outlets, power shutoff goes to Consumers Energy or an electrician first. For supply water, the plumber walks the caller through closing the main shutoff valve or the water heater's cold-water inlet valve. On site, the plumber checks the sump pit, floor drain, water heater and supply lines, explains the repair before starting, then repairs or replaces the pump, clears the main line or fixes the pipe. Extraction and drying go to a restoration contractor.
