Basement leak problems are the easiest to detect. They are also the most often neglected. Although the structural damage caused by a basement leaks isn't as heavy as in other areas of the house, there are other issues related to basement flooding that are problematic. The growth of mold for instance, is exacerbated in the dark and cool conditions in the basement, and your stored items and furniture are likely to suffer extensive damage.
The signs of basement water damage are more easily identifiable than in other areas of the house like your bathroom. Look for water stains on the carpets or floors, and walls. Check for white mineral deposits on concrete surfaces - these occur when the water passes through concrete walls. Rusty nails and rusty feet of furniture are another sure sign that moisture levels in the basement are above normal. If the wood furniture in your basement is a darkened hue, it can indicate that the wood has absorbed water.
A sump pump can be a godsend when your basement gets flooded. Make sure that your sump pump is perfectly serviced, and is in mint condition. Nothing is worse than a sump pump that refuses to work just when you need it for basement drying. Most components of a sump have to be replaced within 10 years, and if your sump pump is older than that, replace it immediately.
