Frequently asked questions
The pond is a few hundred feet away. Can that affect my basement?
Readily. A pond or wetland is the visible surface of the local water table, and that level extends outward through the soil. A basement excavated below it takes water through the floor joint in wet periods without anything overflowing anywhere.
The house is thirty years old. Should the drainage still work?
Often it no longer does as built. Fill settles, landscaping changes the contours, and downspout discharge cuts its own channels. Grading is a maintained condition rather than a permanent one, and three decades is more than enough for it to drift.
Is there a right time of year to investigate a wet basement here?
Late spring, just after the melt, because that is when the evidence is freshest and the ground is at its wettest. Diagnosing in April and correcting in June works with the season rather than against it, and exterior work needs unfrozen ground anyway.
