  2. It’s a simple fact that during a heavy rain most of the waterproofing contractors are swamped with calls. Here are some important tips to follow to minimize and withstand basement leak until the waterproofing experts arrive. bondedwaterproofing.com

  3. Move all your personal belongings and furniture away from the path of water. • Call your insurance company, if the problem is from sewer back up, sump failure, broken water line, or broken roof. • If the leakage is from the outside wall, try to keep the water away from the outside area adjacent to the wall. bondedwaterproofing.com

  4. LOCATE THE LEAK INSIDE YOUR HOME Start finding the leak inside your home by establishing a point of reference such as window fire place, or any other. Also, look carefully at the area between the brick or siding at the ground level for cracks or other sources of leakage. bondedwaterproofing.com

  5. MINIMIZE LEAKAGE OUTSIDE YOUR HOME If the area around the leak is flat or sloping toward the house, use grade to minimize the amount of water entering your home. This is not a permanent solution, but it minimizes the problem until a professional waterproofing expert could fix it permanently. bondedwaterproofing.com

  6. REDUCE LEAKAGE INSIDE YOUR HOME You should control or dry up water inside your home at the same as you are trying to divert water from outside. Use towels, sponges or a shop vac to dry up water inside the home if it is confined to a small area. bondedwaterproofing.com
