What causes a wet basement?

While it's easy to blame water issues on heavy rains, it's not always that simple. In fact, you can have water problems even without heavy rains or obvious standing water! And while water coming through a crack in your floor or basement wall may be easy to identify, it's essential to identify the real cause of your basement water problem. In Ohio, most wet basements can be traced back to the following causes.

The Clay Bowl Effect

Excavated soil that's replaced around a completed foundation isn't as dense and tightly packed as undisturbed soil farther away. As a result, water collects in the soil immediately surrounding the house, putting pressure on foundation walls and causing cracks.

Hydrostatic Pressure

The weight of the water in the soil around the foundation exerts pressure, forcing the water through cracks, gaps, holes, and around windows leading into the basement.

How we solve your basement waterproofing problems

Effective water removal & protection. Clog-free drainage, a powerful sump pump, and an efficient dehumidifier provide the ultimate dry basement solution.

Even a small amount of water in the basement can be a concern.
