Do you have pools of water on the floor or base of your basement walls? If so then you could have a potential problem with your basement. The next thing you need to ask yourself is why.
 
A downspout that became disconnected after the inspection can cause water supply in the basement. Basements are closed areas so they are prone to trapping humidity that spark dampness and flooding.
 
Basements also become wet if the water table becomes flooded around the house and there is nowhere for the water to go. This can occur in many different types of soil.
 
Be forewarned that having water penetrate the basement is fairly commonplace in older homes. Keep your gutters clean and clear, this will allow water to be carried away from the basement walls.
 
A chronic basement leak is a serious problem and may do more damage than a homeowner expects. Cracks in the walls and floor can expand in the cold with just a small amount of water, therefore it's very important to keep the water from penetrating the basement walls and floor.
Waterproofing your basement is a good investment in your family's health and your home's value.
