In a home that often comes under huge pressure from heavy downpour and floods, a sump pump may be the best way to protect the structure from water damage. Sump pumps may not be useful to every homeowner; however, there are some homes that cannot do without them. If your home drains a lot of water, you probably need to have a sump pump installed. Homes fitted with sump pumps rely on them in times of big storms. While you may feel protected having installed a sump pump, what you need to know is that the same storms that compel you to install pumps may also cause power to fail and render systems useless.
You will need an expert to deal with sump pump power failure and at Aquatech Waterproofing, we can help. We install power back up systems for your sump pump to ensure that it will not be rendered useless whenever it rains heavily or there are floods. This will avoid a disaster from occurring because if the pumps won’t work, you will not be able to drain away the water entering the basement.
Assessing Leakages
Water seeping on top of your wall presents an obvious problem. Attending to the leaks sooner will address the problem and further eliminates the likelihood of extensive structural deterioration. Carefully assessing the wall surfaces for water seepages in areas between the slab and concrete sill plate is the sure way of confirming leakages. Water tends to form from the top, hence causing appearance of obvious dampness or drips underneath it as it drips.
