Connecticut Endures 10 Inches of Rain: American Dry Basement Systems Proves Reliable

One customer shared their experience:

"Several years ago, we had American Dry Basement install a drainage system. Before, our basement flooded regularly. We were hesitant, but this has been the best purchase we've ever made. During the recent storm, our pump handled 20,000 gallons of water, keeping our basement completely dry while our neighbor's basement flooded. The system did exactly what was promised and is worth every penny!"

We're proud to provide reliable waterproofing solutions that offer peace of mind, even in extreme weather.

There are a few reasons why water might still be getting into your basement even after the exterior walls have been waterproofed. Here are a few possibilities:

1. The waterproofing was not done correctly: If it was not applied correctly or damaged during the application process, it might not be effective at keeping water out.

2. The waterproofing has deteriorated: Over time, waterproofing materials can deteriorate, especially if they are exposed to sunlight, heat, or extreme temperatures. If this has happened, the waterproofing may no longer be effective at keeping water out.

3. There is a problem with the grading around your foundation: Water can also enter your basement if the grading (the slope of the ground) around your foundation is not pitched correctly away from your house. If the ground is not sloping away from your foundation, it can cause water to pool around the foundation and potentially seep into your basement.

4. There is a plumbing leak: A plumbing leak, either inside or outside of your home, can also cause water to enter your basement.

5. There is a problem with the foundation itself: Finally, water can enter your basement through an opening if there is a crack or other issue.

To determine the cause of the water infiltration, it would be best to consult one of our waterproofing professionals, who can inspect your home and identify the root cause of the problem. Book an appointment for a free inspection today! https://americandry.com/free-quote/
