Wet Basement Repair

Wet basements can develop in both old and new homes and it is important to repair the problem as soon as possible. Microbes may grow in a basement, as well as destroy flooring and wall materials. A moist basement wall can also become a structural concern, making it harder to sell your property if you ever decide to sell.

Waterproofing the walls and adding drainage systems such as a sump pump to remove water that gathers in the basement are the most typical techniques of preventing basement water problems.

Some common reasons for the wet basement are as follows

  1. Rain and groundwater might seep into your basement if they can’t drain correctly. One of the most common reasons for basement dampness is improper soil and drainage systems. If water is not channeled away from the house, it will collect around the foundation and enter the home..
  2. Rain gutters are designed to divert rainfall away from the home’s foundation. If gutters are incorrectly placed or blocked, preventing their function;  to operate, water will drain around the foundation instead of away from it.
  3. The land around the home’s foundation should form as a slope away, not towards, your house. If the slope is incorrect, water will collect around the foundation instead of flowing outward.
  4. Water may easily get into the basement via cracks in the walls, flooring, as well as around windows and doors. Water will always choose the route of least resistance, and these gaps allow water to enter easily.

The three most common repair options for a wet basement are interior waterproofing methods, exterior waterproofing methods, and drainage waterproofing methods. Waterproof membranes are utilized to cover the inner and outer areas of the walls, pipes, and drainages.  Sealing materials are also used to seal the cracks in the walls and pipes.
