Wet Basement Solutions

Posted by Nolan Painting on March 3, 2015

Mention the words “flooded basement” and most homeowners are sent into a panic. Even if you’ve never been the victim of a wet or flooded basement, the possibility lies with even the most protected homes. While most causes of major basement flooding come without warning, there are a few things you can do to protect your basement from complete ruin. Start by looking for evidence of a water leak with these tell-tale signs.

  • Changes in your water bill
  • Constant condensation on windows
  • Persistent musty smell
  • Dark spots or wet spots that have since dried
  • Leaking well windows
  • Graded landscape
  • Faulty gutters and downspouts

The importance of determining your vulnerability to a leak is finding the source of the water and testing how much water is entering your home. If you are experiencing large or small amounts of water damage seek the help of a professional basement waterproofing company to help you determine where the source of the water leak is and how to treat if effectively.
