Common sources
- Wells full of leaves with no clear drain
- Downspouts dumping toward the well
- Missing or cracked well covers
- Failed seals at the window buck
What we can help with
Replacement basement windows with proper sealing, coordination with covers, and pointing out grade or gutter issues that feed the well.
Deep waterproofing or sump systems may need another trade — we say so early.
Prevention checklist
- Clear wells each spring and fall
- Confirm well drain flows
- Extend downspouts away from the foundation
- Photograph any active seepage for your records
