What Floor Leaks Mean for Your Omaha Home
When the ground beneath your home is poorly compacted, or there is excess water built up around and beneath your foundation, problems can easily occur. If you have a finished basement in the Omaha area or Nebraska and Iowa, you may not notice floor cracks and leaks until it is too late. Jerry’s Waterproofing suggests that homeowners inspect their basement walls and even the exterior of their foundation for cracks. If you see them in the walls, they could also be under the basement flooring. If your basement is not finished, we recommend inspecting it frequently for cracks, as they may lead to leaks in the floor.
Basement Floor Leak Solutions for Your Omaha Home
At the first sign of moisture, or even if you see a crack in the foundation walls or floors, we can inspect your basement to let you know what we recommend as a solution. We offer sump pump repairs if you already have a sump pump, but we can also inspect your pump system and ensure it works efficiently enough to handle the water around your foundation. We offer exterior and surface drainage in conjunction with a good sump pump, sump pit, and sump basin. It is important in the Fall and Spring to clean your gutters and check your downspouts to ensure they function properly. If you don’t perform these tasks, it can add to the water that is building pressure around your foundation walls and floor, leading to basement floor leaks. We can install exterior waterproofing that will lead water down and away from your home’s foundation, which can also help prevent water buildup around your foundation. We can find a solution that fits the needs specific to your home.
