How to Protect Your Basement from Leaks

Generally, if there is a leak in your basement, it is a sign that something outside of your home is amiss. When gutters are clogged, broken, or not set up properly outside of your home, water can begin to leak into your foundation and cause problems. To prevent clogged gutters, inspect them up regularly and clear any debris that may be building up. If you spot leaves, dirt, or debris, it’s best to remove them before the problem progresses. At Leak Detection of Atlanta, we’re happy to help protect your basement from leaks every step of the way. Give us a call right away and we’ll get to work.

Where Do Leaks Come From?

Basement leaks can be a result of sewer backups, heavy rainfall, flooding, or sump pump failure. Investing in a moisture detector for your basement can help to prevent or catch these leaks before they’re even visible.

One of the most common issues we find causing basement leaks is poor grading around the exterior of your home. When the ground slopes towards your foundation or your backyard does not allow proper water drainage, basement leaks are likely. After heavy rain, if you spot water building up around your home, it could be a sign of potential water damage. If you suspect that this may be the case, give us a call at Leak Detection of Atlanta and we’ll send our professionals your way. It’s better to be safe than sorry, time is critical when it comes to water damage in your home.
