By confronting these issues head on, you can help ensure structural integrity of your home. If you notice water in your basement or damp floors, our team will help you determine not only where the water is coming from but what solution is best for a long-term fix. Water can enter the basement in a variety of ways, including over the top of the foundation, through the cove joint, through cracks in the wall or floor, and from many other places.

Unfortunately, wet basements happen. Without immediate action, your basement and home is subject to expensive damage, including but not limited to wood rot and mold growth near the floor joists of your home. Issues such as persistent moisture and rotting wood don’t only endanger the structural integrity of your home, but also invite pests such as termites and roaches. Tackling these moisture issues directly is vital to your home’s safety and your family’s health.

Mold and mildew growth can cause a variety of serious health problems. These issues can all be avoided by having an effective basement waterproofing system installed in your Annapolis or Chesapeake Bay home to help keep it moisture free.

How Water Seeps Into Your Basement

When you see water on your basement floor or walls, it may not be easy to tell where the water is coming from. Even if the water seems to be coming from the floor, there are many other places it could be entering from. Water tends to take the path of least resistance, meaning that the water in your basement isn’t usually coming directly through the floor.

The five most common sources of basement leaks are the cove joint, windows, wall cracks, floor cracks, and over the top of the foundation. In each of these instances, the water that seeps in originates from run-off seeping into the ground and eventually finding its way into your basement. This means that once water has gotten into your home this way it will likely enter your home again from the same exact spot. Our team of trained experts are able to pinpoint these problems and provide you with the best solution to waterproof your basement.
