The best way to prevent major water damage costs for your home: Fix
your drainage!
Improper drainage leads to gradual foundation damage. You
can go for years and barely notice a problem. Then you reach a tipping
point, and foundation damage can be a costly nightmare.
Foundation
drainage problems can result from too much moisture. Standing water around your home, large amounts of water dumped
by gutter downspouts, or a negative slope of the area around your home
can cause saturated soil, which seeps into, and eventually erodes, your
foundation.
Do you see excessive puddling or ponding
around your home after a heavy rain? Do your basement walls dribble
water? Do you have small yet slowly growing cracks in your basement
walls? All of the above questions are warning signs of foundation
issues.
