What are steps you should take if you discover your concrete foundation is leaking? In a Networx article, writer Steve Graham gets some advice from Cassi Sherman of Peak Basement Systems, a concrete contractor near Denver. Sherman emphasized safety and said to check for submerged wiring or appliances before stepping into a pool of water. "Confirm the water is a foundation leak and not a broken pipe or sewage backup," she said.
Unfortunately, depending on the cause of the leak, you may need to call in a remediation company, an electrician, a plumber, or a concrete foundation or waterproofing specialist. Leaks in your concrete foundation can occur for a variety of reasons. The next task after maintaining safety from electrical shocks is to determine the place and cause of the leak.
