Is your foundation leaking? Maybe you’ve noticed wet spots or rust residue on your foundation walls and wondered how to repair foundation leaks.
Small Cracks In Your Foundation Can Lead to Major Damage
While small cracks and leaks may not seem like a big deal, they can lead to significant damage if they’re not repaired in a timely manner. Not only is water bad for your foundation, but it can also harm your health. Small cracks allow for moisture to seep through. Where moisture is present, insects and mold will soon follow.
Termites Infestations
Whether you have a home with a full basement or a crawlspace, keeping that space dry is important. Insects like termites are drawn to dark, moist areas. If you have a damp basement or crawlspace, be on the lookout for common signs of termite infestation:
- Blisters in Wood Flooring
- Hollowed Wood
- Broken Insect Wings
- Drywood Termite Droppings
Structural & Health Damage
Mold and mildew also flourish in damp spaces. If leaks are left unrepaired, mold and mildew can grow and cause damage to walls, support beams, floors, and your health and well-being. Some warning signs of mold and mildew include:
- Musty Smell
- Visible Mold Growth
- Previous Floods
