When our
house was hit by lightning last year, our sump pump got messed up and started to run in reverse - shooting water into our basement. Thankfully the pump just needed to be reset, and we didn't have any "real" damage because the pump is in a corner of the basement where there was nothing to be damaged.
That really sucks, B. Did you need to file a homeowner's claim?
