When the Rains Come: How to Stop Basement Leaks and Water Damage with Alford's Proven Solutions

Heavy rains can put significant stress on your home’s foundation, leading to basement leaks, water intrusion, and even structural damage. If left untreated, these issues can cause mold growth, weaken your foundation, and create an unhealthy living environment. Fortunately, Alford Foundation and Crawl Space Repair offers effective solutions to keep your basement dry and protected.

Water Seepage Through Foundation Cracks

Impact: During heavy rains, excess water saturates the soil around your home, increasing hydrostatic pressure against your foundation. This pressure can force water through even the smallest foundation cracks, leading to basement leaks and moisture buildup.

Solution: Alford provides foundation crack repair and basement waterproofing to prevent water intrusion. Our team seals cracks with durable epoxy injections and installs waterproofing systems, such as interior drainage solutions and sump pumps, to keep water out for good.

Poor Drainage Leading to Basement Flooding

Impact: If gutters, downspouts, or yard drainage are not directing water away from your home, rainwater can pool around the foundation. Over time, this leads to basement flooding and potential long-term structural damage.

Solution: Alford offers exterior drainage solutions and sump pump installations to prevent water from accumulating near your foundation. Their team can install French drains, extend downspouts, and implement complete waterproofing systems to ensure rainwater is properly redirected away from your home.
