Is There Water In Your Basement?

Ever wonder why there is water in your basement? The number one cause of water in basements is sump pump failure, and number two is downspouts that are not properly running away from the house.

This is a very solvable problem. It almost always gives you signs before a major event that causes a loss. For example, you will smell mildew or something "off." Pay attention to the signs! Walk around barefoot if your basement is carpeted and feel for damp spots.
