(UNDATED) - Contractors around the area are seeing bigger business, thanks to melting snow and plenty of rain.

Terry Benge runs Midwest Remediation. The company handles basement clean-up and sump pump problems.

Benge says their business has increased and his repairmen are seeing lots of folks facing sump pump failure because of the flooded basements.

Benge says it's important to get the murky water out of your basement quick because of bacteria. Benge also recommends storing stuff in your basement in plastic tubs, instead of cardboard boxes.
