Wet Basements and Wet Basement Causes
You’re not alone!  Wet Basements and water damage are serious problems in both newer and older homes. According to the U.S. Census Bureau , as many as 25% of all U.S. homes currently leak and up to 85% will experience a leaking basement in their lifetime causing wet basements and the need for repair. The combination of how a home is built and how water behaves makes it almost impossible for a structure not to leak resulting in a wet basement issue! Amazing, isn’t it?
A recurring wet basement can cause a multitude of home damage issues such as wet carpet, mold and mildew, and rotten wood in the sub flooring. Some wet basement causes included french drains that won't drain due to a blockage or a sump pump that doesn't drain properly. If you continue to experience a wet basement, the best approach is to have a home inspection to determine options to fix the water problems.

Why are so many basements wet and leaking resulting in so much water damage? Your Home Is Built To Leak
The three pieces of concrete that form the foundation footer, foundation wall and floor butt against each other after drying forming a 'cold joint.' Your foundation has voids built into it day one creating a strong probability of leakage in the future. As a result, 85% of all homes leak in their lifetime. To stop your wet basement problems, we've created a video that explains the home building process below.
