If you’re like most families in metro Atlanta, your home is your largest investment. That’s why it’s so important to protect your home with regular maintenance and basement water damage repair when needed. You may not be aware of the signs of water damage to your crawl space, but the expert team at H2O Proof & Foundation Repair knows where to look, what to look for, and which water intrusion solutions to recommend that best suit your property.
Preserving Structural Integrity
Rain is common in Georgia thanks to our state’s humid subtropical climate. When rain is particularly abundant, flash flooding, which causes an excess of water in a short time, may occur. That flooding may lead to small amounts of standing water in your yard and then find its way into very small cracks or spaces in your basement’s foundation. Over time, this can lead to structural issues that can adversely affect the entire structure of your home and cost you tens of thousands of dollars.
When you seek the help of foundation repair experts like our team at H2O Proof, we can inspect your home’s foundation at no cost to you to give you peace of mind that your foundation is in good shape or provide recommendations on how to prevent potential damage. One way we can do that is by waterproofing your basement or crawl space before any issues can arise. This is an ideal option for those considering finishing a basement space.
Preventing Mold and Mildew Growth
The only way to prevent mold and mildew growth is with proper waterproofing of your foundation and basement or crawl space and appropriate drainage systems in your yard. Georgia has a climate with a lot of rain and the soil is porous, so it is easy for water to travel. H2O Proof & Foundation Repair has more than 30 years of hands-on experience and understands how to customize water intrusion solutions for your home and property to prevent water damage that leads to mold and mildew growth.
Mitigating Health Risks
Signs of basement water damage are important to recognize. Some things to look out for are unpleasant smells, moldy drywall, pest infestations, higher-than-usual energy bills, growing stains on concrete, sagging floorboards, and – the most obvious – standing water. If you notice any of these, it’s crucial to seek expert advice on water intrusion solutions since a water-damaged basement can breed mold and mildew; breathing in those spores can cause serious health concerns and endanger your family. Pests can also carry diseases that you don’t want in your home.
