Spring foundation leaks?
Most foundation leaks actually begin at your roof due to clogged, damaged or improperly installed eavestroughs and downspouts causing inadequate drainage. It is imperative that your eavestrough system carries rainwater and/or melting snow away from your foundation. You can prevent costly foundation repairs by having your eavestroughs and downspouts evaluated and maintained regularly by a roofing specialist.
Make sure your eavestroughs are cleaned at least twice a year, more often if you have many trees around your home. Have your evestroughs and downspouts inspected every spring. Ice buildup can damage evestroughs and snow covered downspouts can be stepped on or compressed by heavy snow causing damage and the joints to come apart. Proper maintenance by a qualified professional can protect your foundation saving you time and money.
