One of the most common water-related problems is basement seepage. Since basements are seldom used, they are often untreated and ignored. However, most basements in Kansas City, MO are connected to the house so moisture problems in the basement can affect the entire home. Moisture can lead to health issues, mold growth, and structural damage. Several factors can cause wet basements such as heavy rain, poor drainage, improper gutters, grading and inadequate downspouts. Wet basements are extremely prevalent in older homes without a waterproofing system. Regular maintenance is a necessary task around your home to prevent water seepage in your basement.
