June 6 2010 Sewer Backup

Here is another view of the sewage as it first began entering our basement on June 6, 2010. The eventual water depth rose to 36". After all our years of paying premiums to AAA, it was just wonderful to find out that they will not cover any of the damage! Warning to others: Check your insurance - our agent should have advised us, but we hardly ever saw or spoke with him (never in the office). We lost everything - furnace, water heater, washer, dryer, ( a chest freezer full of food was floating on its side). The wonderful city of Garden City, MI says there was nothing they could do to prevent the flooding and no help is available.
