A Basement That’s Not Waterproofed
Many people suffer from flooding within their homes. Although it isn’t easy to determine when flooding could occur, there are a few indicators that indicate your house is vulnerable to flooding. If you observe these signs, then you must seek out a plumber to identify the source of the issue:
A Damp Basement with the Smell of Musty
A damp and musty odor will often accompany a basement susceptible to flooding. It can feel highly humid, and you might observe that furniture feels wet.
Mould Is Present in Your Basement.
The mold isn’t just dangerous to your family members. Still, it could be an indication of the presence of a leak in your basement. Moisture is the cause of mold, so the fact is a sign that your basement should be inspected by a qualified professional.
Cracks Visible in the Floor or Walls
If you notice apparent cracks in the floors, walls, or floor, it means your home’s foundation has to get compromised. Although its structural integrity may be unaffected, any break allows moisture into your home, which can lead to the spread of spores and mold, as well as floods.
