a Bird in Hand

The little things are everything..

Picture
Battling a wet basement?
  • Check your roof gutter downspouts...... Do they look like this --->
  • Is the soil around the perimeter of the home sunken in areas?

Picture
​The remedy  
  • ​First add  downspout extensions like this...
  • Then add soil, building it up around the house like this...  ​

​Keep in mind  the soil/dirt should only touch the foundation block and not be in contact with any siding.  Reason being soils/grass/mulch all retain water.
That moisture can, and will wick into the building if not blocked.
