The first part of fixing a wet basement is figuring out why you have a wet basement. This is where we come in. We will investigate the possible causes of your soggy nightmare, and then fix the problem. Basement waterproofing can protect against many of a wet basement’s causes. A few common causes include:

• Condensation. This is caused when cold concrete walls hit warm air. The water vapor rapidly cools when it hits the cold concrete and turns to liquid water.
• Groundwater Runoff. Does your basement flood in the springtime, just after the snow has melted? That means that moving water is not properly diverted away from your basement.
• Groundwater Swelling. This is caused by the water table by your home hitting a higher than usual point after a big storm or after a snow melt.
