#AtoZChallenge - R is for Rain Inspection

After heavy rains it is vital that you inspect your basement and your exterior property for exterior drainage issues. Is there dribbling water down your basement walls or by your basement windows? Do you have mini-ponds of standing water for days after a heavy rain? Does the water seem to be draining toward your home, not away from it?

If the answer is yes to any of these questions, we suggest you call Integrity Drainage Solutions today to arrange a free consultation.

Did you know exterior drainage problems affect 60% of all homeowners. Drainage problems may be seasonal or develop over time. Typically, homeowners can go for years before they even realize they have a persistent problem. These drainage issues will continue to worsen as water settles property features such as lawn areas, patios, driveways, and foundations--often causing a preventable damage and expense.

After a heavy rain, inspect your home and property for any of these signs of water damage:

• Mold buildup,
• standing water ponding,
• mushy lawn areas,
• foundation issues,
• damp walls,
• water on basement floor.
