Leading Causes of Foundation Seepage in Arlington

Cracked Foundation Walls or Slab

Hairline fractures and settlement cracks in the foundation create direct paths for groundwater.

Clogged or Missing Gutters

Gutters that overflow dump water directly beside the foundation, leading to saturated soil and basement water seepage.

Improperly Sealed Window Wells
