Heavy rainfall is quite common in the Washington, D.C., Maryland, and Virginia area, particularly during the summer months. Fortunately, most homes are equipped with a sump pump - a device that removes water from basements and crawl spaces that can result from heavy rain or other forms of flooding. Preventative maintenance is the key to ensuring your sump pump will function properly in the event of heavy rainfall. We advise that all homeowners test their sump pump between heavy storms to make sure it's working correctly.

Spring showers may bring May flowers, but they also bring ants indoors looking for shelter from the storm. While most insects quiet their bodies in diapause -a period of suspended development - over the winter, they come alive with activity as the weather warms. This is why you're most likely to experience an ant problem in the spring and summer. And while they are mainly a nuisance bug, ants can contaminate food, and carpenter ants cause structural damage. Learn more about the types of ants active in the Washington, D.C. area, proper ant control prevention measures and ant removal.
Termites generally swarm as the weather warms up, but it's important to remember that they are active all year-round as well. The only way to prevent and treat your home properly is through an initial inspection by one of our certified inspectors. No two houses are alike so CroppMetcalfe will customize our treatment to your home. Your inspection will include an inspection report, a treatment graph, and a written proposal. You will know exactly what is included in your treatment. Our 5-Star Technicians are highly trained.
Backflow occurs when contaminants such as waste, pesticides, and/or fertilizers infiltrate your home or business' water supply, leading to health and safety hazards. In order to keep your water supply safe for drinking, cooking, and bathing, local and federal building codes require that homes and businesses follow strict guidelines for backflow prevention. Backflow prevention helps to protect your drinking water from potential contamination due to backsiphonage or backpressure. Backsiphonage occurs when a sudden drop in subatmospheric pressure in the piping system allows potentially harmful substances to be siphoned or drawn into the water supply.
