What Canton homeowners deal with
Canton is a township of 98,232 residents, and its homes are far newer than Wayne County's. Census figures show 36% were built before 1980, against 81% for the county, and only 1% before 1950. In a newer Michigan basement, a sump pump keeps groundwater out. A pump that fails in a storm or a power cut lets it in.
Cold is long here. NOAA climate normals show 130 nights a year at or below 32 degrees and 51 at or below 20. On 43 days a year the temperature stays below freezing. Lines in garages and outside walls split on the hardest nights. Spring melt from 45 inches of snow then soaks the ground around foundations.
Renters hold 23% of homes and 17% sit in buildings with 5 or more units. Wayne County logged 29 days with flash flood or flood reports from 2016 to 2025, and storm water in a basement is Category 3. Water-damaged floor repair then means pulling carpet and pad off the slab. Canton calls go to the restoration company that serves the Troy area.

The first hour in Canton
Canton averages 45 inches of snow a year, against 36 across Wayne County. NOAA climate normals also count 43 days that never rise above freezing. When a pipe splits or snowmelt reaches the basement, start at the main shutoff, usually near the water meter. Close it if a pipe is the source.
If water is coming up through the floor, check that the sump pump is running. Then switch off breakers for wet areas, working only from dry ground. Photograph the source, the water line on the walls and each damaged item. Carry boxes, rugs and electronics upstairs. With 4% of homes manufactured, check under those floors too. Calls for water removal are answered 24/7.
