Our specialists are trained professionals who will identify and seal any potential weaknesses before they become harmful problems for you!
Clogged Drainage System
There are many reasons why your basement may be leaking, but one of the most common is a clogged footing drain. Fine particles from soil and other substances enter with rainwater until it becomes too thick to move anymore; sediments build up blocking any routes for water flow which ultimately results in leaks!
Footing Drain Installation by Atlanta Sump Pump Geeks
Conventional footing drain installation process starts by excavating the soil around your basement foundation and backfilling it once you have installed a new drainage system. The packed-down dirt is usually less permeable than unworked land, so rainwater tends to accumulate around foundation walls and may eventually seep through crevices or cracks and into your basement.
