Water Leaking In Your Basement - How Did It Get In?

Over time water can find a way in through cracks in the wall, at the join with the wall and foundation stone, or through cracks in the floor.

Water leaking into a basement

Water water everywhere. Over time water can find a way in through cracks in the wall, at the join with the wall and foundation stone, or through cracks in the floor.

We do three major things when it comes to addressing a leaking basement:

  • Assess the situation and find the source of the leak
  • Repair the cracks, foundation walls, or floor
  • Install our system that will prevent the leak from happening in the future

Our Assess, Repair and Prevent system has proven to be the most effective system when it comes to fixing basement leaks. Assessing where the water is coming from is extremely important in the prevention process. Sometimes it’s as simple as replacing the gutters so the water flows and drains properly.

Many times the seal around the basement windows has deteriorated and allows water to come in. Window wells that do not drain the water properly can also cause water to pool and come in through any cracks. These factors need to be assessed by our basement leak professionals.

Many times the cost for the repair is much less than you might think. Also, leaving a problem unresolved can lead to a more costly repair in the long run. Aquatight offers free estimates, so there’s no reason not to call us if you have a basement leak or crack.

Looking To Seal Your Basement From Water?

Homeowners often describe the problem as needing to “seal the basement,” but the right fix depends on where the water is coming from.

A wet basement may need crack injection, interior drain tile, a sump pump system, floor crack repair, exterior foundation waterproofing, or a combination of solutions. Aquatight will inspect the issue and recommend the right way to stop water, manage moisture, and protect your basement long-term.
