Basement Water Removal Rooted in Fargo
Basement Water Removal Rooted in Fargo
Pete Jensen founded Fargo Basement Recovery after years of seeing how heavy spring snowmelt and sudden thunderstorms push water into basements across Cass County. Operating from 1706 Main Ave in Fargo, he built the company to handle the specific challenges of older homes in neighborhoods like Hawthorne and Northport where clay soils and aging foundations meet the Red River's seasonal rises.
The team focuses on Flooded Basement Cleanup that matches Fargo's weather patterns, from blizzard runoff in winter to severe summer storms that overwhelm drainage near the Fargodome and West Acres. Pete keeps the work owner-operated so every job in Downtown Fargo or Prairie Rose gets direct attention rather than being handed off to crews from Bismarck or Grand Forks.
Clients reach the shop Monday through Friday from 8am to 6pm and Saturday from 9am to 2pm for straightforward scheduling that fits real local needs without added layers.

What Fargo, ND Customers Say
“Spring runoff from the Red River pushed water through a hairline crack in my foundation wall on the east side. Fargo Basement Recovery pumped out the standing water, injected epoxy into the crack, and set up a temporary dehumidifier. The floor stayed dry through the next two rain events.”
“A frozen downspout caused water to back up against my south foundation during the January thaw. They excavated a small section, installed a French drain stub, and regraded the soil away from the house. No more pooling shows up after heavy snowmelt.”
“My basement window well filled during a June thunderstorm and water seeped under the sill. The crew removed the water, replaced the deteriorated well liner with a deeper one, and added a battery backup to the existing sump. The carpet stayed dry even after the July storms.”
