Where in Superior Township do we work?
We work across Dixboro, the Geddes Road and Plymouth Road corridors and the newer subdivisions near Ypsilanti. From our Ann Arbor office we usually take Plymouth Road or Geddes Road east, so Superior Township is a short drive.
What usually goes wrong here?
Housing here is a mix of rural homes on larger lots, some on wells, and newer subdivision homes. Water problems often start with Fleming Creek, a sump pump that loses power in a storm, or a pipe that freezes in an outside wall.
Fleming Creek
Fleming Creek runs through Superior Township to the Huron River. The township is a mix of farmland, older farmhouses and newer subdivisions.
Rural homes
Wells, septic and unheated outbuildings bring their own risks. Frozen well lines and septic backups are common winter and spring calls. Septic water is Category 3 and needs cleaning and disinfection.
Wetlands and development
Superior Township has a wetlands ordinance covering wetlands of all sizes, and a Fleming Creek Advisory Council reviews new development for its effect on the creek. Homes built near wetlands often sit on a high water table, so sump pumps work hard in spring.
What to check each spring
- Run the sump pump by pouring water into the pit
- Make sure the discharge line drains away from the house
- Look for damp spots at the base of basement walls
- Check the well pressure tank and lines for frost damage
What is different about homes in Superior Township?
Superior Township has subdivisions near Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti and more rural homes farther out, some on wells and septic. Rural homes often take longer for help to reach, so knowing where your main water shutoff and breaker panel are matters. If a pipe bursts in winter, shut off the water first, then call.
How long will drying take?
Usually a few days for clean water caught early. We check readings daily and leave the equipment until it reads dry.
What do we do first?
We make the space safe and measure how far the water spread. Then the water comes out.
What else can we help with in Superior Township?
We also clean up after fires, mold and sewage backups.
