Fraser, MI Water Damage Restoration Companies Ranked: Prime Restoration First of 495

Fraser puts the service line in the homeowner's hands. The city says the homeowner is responsible for any blockage in the sanitary service line between the home and the city's sanitary sewer main. Personnel from the Department of Public Works will help a homeowner decide where the problem starts. The city page puts the dividing line at the sanitary sewer main.

Beyond the city main, the wastewater goes to a county system. Macomb County Public Works lists Fraser among the communities served by the Macomb Interceptor Drain Drainage District, which serves approximately 600,000 residents. The county also states that anyone who experiences a sewage system overflow or backup must file a written claim within 45 days after discovery. A resident who suspects a main-line failure should write that claim early.

Rain runoff takes a different path. Fraser collects most stormwater in catch basins, and it flows into open and enclosed Macomb County drains. Prime Restoration is open 24/7 and ready to dispatch now from its Sterling Heights Headquarters, 14 minutes by road from Fraser. Prime Restoration scores 73 on ContractorsRanked, which is 6 points above the company at rank 2.

Fraser requires permits beyond the building permit. The Building Department states that permits are required for plumbing, electrical and mechanical work. It does not accept permit applications by mail, so an owner completes the online permit application. The city also asks the applicant to allow 24 to 48 hours for payment to clear before an inspection is scheduled. A repair plan should leave room for that wait.

Fraser keeps FEMA flood maps and a flood plain page on its own site. The map page lets residents view different views of the same area to find the flood plain areas within the city. The flood plain page lists an Elevation Certification Application and a Community Acknowledgement Form. An owner of a flooded home near a mapped area should check those pages before rebuilding.

Fraser also runs a Non-Owner Occupied Housing program. The city says the program has taken effect and that inspections are being scheduled under Sec. 6-301 through Sec. 6-310 of its code. A landlord with a water-damaged rental should expect that inspection track. Prime Restoration holds Michigan residential builder license #262500492 and documents each job with photos, moisture logs and a written scope.
