Biohazard cleanupPrairie winters and summer downpours
Brookings averages January lows around 4°F and about 36 inches of snow a year. On those nights, pipes in exterior walls, unheated basements and crawlspaces can freeze and split, and the leak often doesn't show until things thaw. Ice dams along the eaves can push meltwater into ceilings and walls.
Summer brings the opposite. In September 2019, slow-moving storms dropped 3 to 8 inches of rain across southeast South Dakota, and the National Weather Service logged flash flooding in Brookings, with several streets under water and vehicles stranded.

Questions people ask
Are you a restoration company?
No. This is a free referral line. Your call goes to an independent provider that serves the area, and that provider does the work.
I rent near campus. What should I do first?
Tell your landlord or property manager right away and, if you have it, your renter's insurance. A restoration provider can work with the owner on drying and repairs.
Is a flooded basement covered?
It depends on the cause. Burst pipes are often covered; surface flooding needs a flood policy; sump pump and sewer backup usually require a separate endorsement.
