Wet basement? Cracks in your foundation? Sometimes these problems are very telling! At other times, however, cracks and leaks are hidden. Neither are good for your home! Mildew, mold and structural damage can occur. It is vital to rectify foundation damage and to fix a wet, damp or leaking basement as soon as possible in order to minimize damage. |
Sources of water seepage :
- Cracks in the foundation, brick or stonework
- Improper grading
- The water table is high
- Stairs to basement are not draining properly
- Original waterproofing membrane has decayed
- Rain gutters and down spouts need to be cleaned, mended or relocated
- Basement window wells are leaking
- Septic drain field or the weeping tiles are failing or clogged

Symptoms of a settling foundation:
- Cracks in the your home's foundation or masonry
- Cracks in the drywall or interior walls
- Your home's flooring is cracking
- Floors are heaving
- Outer doors and windows have become improperly aligned
- Inside doors are jamming or are no loner able to close
|
| One of the number one reasons for water seeping into a basement is improper grading. If the ground is properly sloped away from a home water will run off the property away from the house. |
