I've got an old farmhouse with a fieldstone foundation, and the basement gets wet every spring. Can you help?

Yes, and it's common in North Andover's older houses. Fieldstone foundations were never built to be watertight. We get the water out and dry it, then tell you what's actually driving it, whether that's grading, drainage, or the foundation itself.

How fast can you get to North Andover?

Usually under an hour from our Lowell base. If you're farther out toward the edges of town it might take a bit longer, but active water gets a crew moving right away.

My sump pump failed during a storm and the basement flooded. Is that covered?

Often, yes. A sudden mechanical failure like a dead sump pump is usually a covered claim, though it depends on your policy. We document the cause and the damage clearly so the claim holds up, and we bill the carrier directly.

What does this kind of job cost?

A contained leak might be a few hundred dollars up to about $1,500. A flooded basement usually runs $3,000 to $8,000 depending on how much finished space is involved. You get a written estimate first, and on a covered claim you're mostly paying your deductible.

Do you handle mold if you find it?

Yes. If we find mold during a water job, we contain the area, remove what's affected, and fix the moisture source so it doesn't grow back. Older North Andover basements that have been damp a long time sometimes have it.

Water damage in North Andover

North Andover is less packed-in than Andover or Lawrence. You've got antique farmhouses around the Old Center, the mill housing down in Machine Shop Village, and a lot of subdivision colonials and ranches from the 70s and 80s spread across the rest of town. Each era brings its own water problem, and the fix isn't the same for a 1790 farmhouse as it is for a 1978 colonial.

Lake Cochichewick sits at the center of town, and the Merrimack runs along the south side. Homes near the water and the older houses with fieldstone foundations tend to see groundwater in a wet stretch. The newer subdivisions lean on sump pumps, and a sump pump is only as reliable as the power and the float switch behind it.
