The winter in Illinois brought some days of heavy snow and it has stayed around until recently as the temperatures have slowly started warming up. Now the snow that was around your home has begun to thaw. This thawing along with typical spring rains brings some heavy rains, you want to make sure that your basement is prepared.
Everyone in Illinois is looking forward to the warmer temperatures. However, you need to be aware that these warm temperatures may bring unwanted water into your basement. When the groundwater gets saturated around your foundation and the water table rises beneath your foundation, the water will find its way into your basement through any small crack it finds.
Also, water will come from a variety of sources such as:
- Improper grading
- Blocked drainage pipes
- Leaky downspouts or gutters
- Ruts that direct runoff towards the foundation
- Foundation Cracks
That is why it is important to have a professional come in and inspect your home and basement for water leaks and possible areas that are in need of repair.
Don’t let these beautiful spring days turn into a problem for you and your basement.
A wet basement can cause you to lose personal possessions, living space, and become a breeding area for mold and mildew. Mold and mildew can get into the air you breathe creating health issues for you and your family.
