April Showers Bring May Flowers and....Leaky Basements!

April is a wonderful time of the year. The weather is starting to get warmer, and plants are beginning to grow again. Things start looking up until the rain comes pouring down and brings a ton of problems along with it. 

For a house, those problems can be a big issue. As the rain flows into your basement or crawl space, it can create a damp environment which has the potential to wreak havoc on the rest of your home. 

Heavy rains may be the cause of a massive basement flood or tons of mold growth. Neither of these are a good thing and the cost to fix them can be steep. 

If left untreated, water intrusion can cause the following problems over time:
•    mold or mildew growth
•    poor air quality inside your home 
•    humid conditions
•    damage to your foundation
•    health problems such as aggravated asthma or allergies
•    smelly, damp carpeting
•    damage to personal belongings stored in these areas 

If you notice these things happening in your home, it is time to give us a call. 

Do not let the musty odor linger, pay high heating or cooling bills, or allow your hardwood floors to buckle and rot away.
