Water Mitigation & Management Services

Water Management


A wet basement is more than a nuisance.


If your basement includes finished living space, any kind of moisture can ruin carpeting, drywall, and framing not to mention damaging your belongings. Even if you have a crawl space or just use your basement for storage, a simple case of condensation can buckle hardwood flooring on the level above and spawn harmful mold. Of course this is even more serious when it happens in the middle of trying to market your home in the process, as has happened to many of our clients of late.

Depending on how much water invades the space, it could signal serious damage to the structure of your home. In fact, just an inch of water creeping across the floor can cost you from several hundred dollars and exceed more than $10,000, see www.floodsmart.gov. Wetness in the basement or crawlspace is caused by excess water pressure (usually from heavy rain or melting snow) that is pushed though existing cracks in your home’s foundation. As you can imagine, this can cause major structural damage to the foundation of your home and also contribute to moisture related problems, like mold, rot, and decay.


Begin Water Management

There are a variety of ways that moisture can penetrate through basement walls and floors.


Some examples are:

  • Inadequate waterproofing of exterior walls during construction
  • Cracks caused by expansion and contraction due to outside temperature changes
  • Openings created to allow access for water pipes and cable
  • A general rule to keep in mind is that water penetration can be managed from the inside of the basement when the leak is minor or there is no access to the foundation from the outside. If the water penetration is extensive, an exterior method is usually more appropriate.

What to Do About It

When determining the correct waterproofing solution, you need to consider the extent of the water penetration and what you plan to use your basement for. Wet basements or crawlspaces rarely fix themselves, and can lead to expensive foundation repairs if left untreated.

Steps to Take After Immediate Water Damage or Basement Flooding

Any time your home has experienced recent water damage, it’s best to quickly assess the environment and contact a professional to inspect the situation and begin performing repairs. While waiting for a water damage restoration professional, you can reduce structural and property damage by performing several safety and cleaning tasks:
  • Shut off power to the flooded or damp area. Avoid turning off the power if you have to stand in pools of water to do so, and wait for a professional before taking any next steps.
  • Enter the flooded area wearing proper protective clothing and remove any waterlogged furniture, decor or valuable property, placing them in a safe and elevated area to dry completely.
  • Begin drying out the space and removing any standing water by using a shop vacuum and dehumidifiers. Open windows and doors to improve ventilation.
Once you’ve performed preliminary safety and cleaning steps, work with your hired restoration company to determine next steps like performing any mold inspections and remediation to prevent harmful mold growth or spreading, and begin rebuilding damaged items to restore your home to its former pristine condition.

“After the hurricane, TRR stepped in and evaluated the mold damage and prevented further damage, then formulated a plan to remedy the problem. I received an excellent quality of work at a fair price. They also helped several of my neighbors, who were also very happy with their service.”
