Is water coming in to your basement again? Ugh. Maybe its through the windows or whenever the outside door is opened. Or maybe there is a pesky crack on the wall that just keeps getting bigger and water has started to seep through. 

All of these are real-life examples of how your basement could be causing you a headache. And all of these are reasons to have your basement inspected by an expert.

Why Does It Matter?

You may be wondering why you should worry about the problems in your basement. Maybe you don't even use your basement, so out of sight out of mind, right? Wrong! A wet basement can be a huge problem for the health of your home. Moisture in the basement can lead to musty smells, mold, or even structural problems. Never mind damage to any belongings that most people DO keep in their basements. 

 

Moisture in The Basement

A wet basement doesn't just affect the basement. It affects the whole house. Unfortunately that classic "musty basement smell" isn't just a quirk. Musty smells usually stem from mold. Mold loves to grown in moist, humid environments. When a basement isn't protected from moisture, it becomes susceptible to big problems like mold mildew, and wood rot.
