3 Ways Water Can Enter Your Basement

Learn about the three main ways water can enter your basement. The three ways are through the cove joint, where the wall and floor meet, through cracks in the basement wall, and over the basement wall. If you've got any of these problems then you need to speak with a basement waterproofing expert such as Quality Waterproofing.

What about water seeping thru the floor? 🤔

[@ws775]

You can get water through cracks and expansion cuts in the floor. Also if the sump pump fails the basin will overflow.

[@gandhi1960]

No mention of leaks through tie rod holes which is more common

[@Karla-yi5ld]

I’d like to know how does installing a sump pump which isn’t cheap stop the problem on the floor?

Downspouts from the roof are bad for this if they are not extended far enough away from the home

[@JamesVibe]

Yes....and in my case with a old house from 1930 - our downspouts were made of clay pipe....and over time they cracked...causing big leaks in basement from the top ceiling of basement. I cut the downspout and put a temporary hose extending the downspout away from house..... problem solved

[@lanxy2398]

I have the first one, what’s the solution for this?

[@olenaerhardt7725]

We recently had rather heavy rains, and observed a wet spot (~6in in diameter) in front of our bathroom. It never dries off, we saw it first time like 3-4 days ago. I'll see if it goes away when the rains stop. But what it can be? No wet spots on walls or ceiling. Can it be some kind of foundation leak? Thank you for the informative film.

[@bellareana3226]

Same here. Whenever it's a down pour this happens to me. I'm terrified of my floor cracking

[@goon5544]

I have a sump pump that I heard workingafter the snow melted a few days ago. I noticed just a small amount of water coming in the bottom corner wall. Should I be concerned?

[@hhova29]

I just had a similar issue last night as we got over 2.5 inches of rain overnight. The sub pump bulb seemed stuck and I activated it by touching it. Had water come in through my wall which was not much, but enough to scare me. My local DEP said my neighborhood sewers were fine but to make sure the sub pump was working w/ no restriction. I’m assuming it was to much rain in one night because it was I’ve never seen water com in through a basement wall before. Perhaps your circumstance was due to the similar issue

[@stickshiftt9127]

What about seepage?

[@MrWelster]

There is a fourth way when your contractor drills a hole through the basement wall for water supply for the lawn the pipe is smaller than the hole and the contractor does not know how to plug it so it doesn’t leak.

[@kluge4206]

Our sump well was overflowing and water showed up through the carpet throughout the basement in various parts although it was dry in between,was wondering if maybe the water table had risen and come through various cracks?

[@fh3486]

I have same problem too. Good to know others are facing similar issue

[@kazihossain1687]

The sound is very low.

[@androidphone6972]

What’s the solution?

[@pnutbuttababi24]

My basement got flooded with a foot of water from the city sewer system... now I have to get a $15,000 overhead sewer system put in my basement.

[@howdyault7710]

You don’t even mention of outside water line break!

You didn’t say any thing about pipes I got a basement flood it was by the intake pipe it leaked water and went down into the basement I went unnoticed for a unknown amount of time really I don’t know I was like a inches thick like a little less then a Half a feet maybe also we know be cuz the floor In the bath room was leaking on a tale we Brooke the tails the wood was all wet well we did broke the wall first to find the intake pipe then we went down to the basement then my dad said the f word is was flooded then my mom said she thot is was cuz after any shower this tile leaks then we Brooke it of then we sow the wet wood we did tests with the shower before we Broke the tails or maybe we die all ready I think we did all ready and did teats the see if it was the shower in the bathroom or the sink in the other room it was the shower and the sink I think I think not then we noticed it was the intake pipe my dads fear then I was a cold night most likely -5 f. Or c. And I can’t remember any more I don’t even know why I said this

[@InAweOfAnimals]

We never had water in our basement until my husband commented that we have a really dry basement. Seriously! Now every time it even slightly rains we get inches of water. City just put new gas lines in our neighborhood. Could they have hit a water line that is causing our problem? If so, I would think water would come in all the time ...not just when it rains?!
