ATLANTA, GA – January 21, 2026 – PRESSADVANTAGE –
RestoPros of Intown Atlanta, a restoration service provider with 30 years of combined industry experience, is reminding residential and commercial property owners to inspect their sump pump systems before the arrival of January’s seasonal rainfall to prevent potentially costly basement flooding incidents.
As Atlanta enters its traditional winter rainy season, the restoration company emphasizes that preventive maintenance of sump pumps can help property owners avoid the significant disruption and expense associated with water damage restoration. The reminder comes as weather patterns typically bring increased precipitation to the Atlanta metropolitan area during the first quarter of the year.
“January marks the beginning of our region’s wettest months, and we see a notable increase in basement flooding calls during this period,” said Averi Magnuson, Owner and President of RestoPros of Intown Atlanta. “A simple sump pump inspection now can prevent thousands of dollars in water damage later. We recommend property owners test their systems, check backup power sources, and ensure discharge lines are clear of debris.”
Sump pump failures represent one of the leading causes of basement water damage in both residential and commercial properties. When these systems fail during heavy rainfall, water can accumulate rapidly, damaging flooring, drywall, stored items, and potentially creating conditions favorable for mold growth. The restoration company notes that many property owners discover pump failures only after flooding has already occurred.
The timing of preventive maintenance proves particularly critical as winter storms can bring sudden, heavy rainfall to the Atlanta area. Properties in Buckhead, College Park, Douglasville, Smyrna, and surrounding communities face similar risks during seasonal weather events. Regular sump pump testing involves running the system to verify proper operation, checking float switches, and confirming that discharge pipes direct water away from foundation walls.
“Property owners often overlook sump pump maintenance until an emergency occurs,” added Magnuson. “We encourage everyone to take a proactive approach. Testing takes just minutes, but the peace of mind and potential savings are substantial.”
Beyond sump pump inspection, the restoration company recommends property owners clear gutters and downspouts, inspect basement walls for cracks or moisture, and ensure proper grading directs water away from foundations. These preventive measures work together to minimize water intrusion risks during periods of heavy precipitation.
For properties that do experience water damage despite preventive efforts, rapid response remains essential to minimize damage and restoration costs. Standing water can compromise structural materials within hours, while moisture creates ideal conditions for mold growth within 24 to 48 hours of water exposure.
