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.
The B-Dry Waterproofing System can stop your wet basement problem permanently.
If you are looking for a solution that protects your home forever from leaky

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.
