Here in Michigan, our marine clay soil can't hold any more water. It is like a sink with the faucet running. Everything seems fine, then all of a sudden there is water all over the place," he adds. "The tremendous swings of freeze-thaw cycles are accentuating the problem. One day, it is 53 degrees. The next day, we are back down to 19. Three days later, the temperature is 45. Something has to give. Potholes show what is happening above ground. The same thing is happening to the concrete in our basement walls.

All basements have problems, but block basements are the worst because water seeps into the cavities. An average block basement can hold 450 gallons of water. All it takes is a small crack on the inner side of the wall to go from being a little damp to having the floor covered by 4-inches of water. Signs that indicate you may have a problem include rust on the furnace and other metal appliances, dry rot in the 2-by-4s and mold or mildew on drywall.
