Waterproofing Your Home Against Water Damage

BY: Shawn Levie, Southern Crawl Space

Improper DrainageA properly functioning drainage system is essential to protect your home and your family’s health. Don’t wait until you experience the consequences of neglecting your drainage system. Without a well-maintained outlet, liquids become trapped in pipes, leading to clogs, leaks on floors and walls, mold and mildew growth, unpleasant odors, and an uncomfortable and unsafe environment for everyone.

 

The Risks of Improper Drainage

Without a properly maintained drainage system, you can expect issues such as:

  • Foundation damage: Cracks in your home’s foundation can lead to weakened foundation, erosion, and structural issues.
  • Water damage: Water damage can impact every area of your home, potentially causing wood rot, structural issues, and mold.
  • Mold and mildew growth: Stagnant water and moisture caused by improper drainage can lead to mold and mildew growth, as do leaks.
  • Basement flooding: Water seeping through the foundation can lead to basement flooding.
  • Pest infestations: Mosquitoes, cockroaches, and other pests will find their way into your home if drainage issues are a problem.
  • Landscape damage: Your landscaping can be in trouble if drainage issues wander outside.
  • Health issues: Disease-carrying insects can lead to health problems, as can mold and mildew growth.

These drainage issues not only affect the comfort and safety of your home but can also lead to costly repairs and medical expenses. The solution is simple: maintain your home’s drainage system to ensure it functions properly, saving you from the headaches, expenses, and time associated with drainage problems.
