With the most obvious sign being visible water, basement walls can also give other clues. If you see mold or mildew, bubbles in the paint, crack in concrete blocks, or efflorescence, you have moisture making its way inside.

We recommend stopping the source of water for long-term protection. We can install sump pumps, and interior drainage systems to direct any incoming water outside, but ultimately if the exterior is experiencing a drainage problem the water will continue to be a problem.
A sump pump is a pump installed on the basement floor and used to remove water that accumulates. It collects the water in a basin and when it’s full it pumps the water to the outside. These are fairly common in basement homes.
