  • Flooding and Water Pooling – Caused by an excess of rainwater, river flooding, and high water tables in the soil around your home.
  • Damp or Humid Basement – Basement moisture, condensation, or leakage, leads to increased basement humidity and dampness.
  • Leaky Basement – Combination of foundation cracks in your home and water seepage due to large amounts of ground or surface water outside.
  • Mold and Mildew Growth – Due to damp, humid conditions in the basement and often occurs in the crawl space or other small, poorly ventilated areas.
