Know the Signs

Early Warning Signs Des Plaines Homeowners Miss

Most Des Plaines calls didn't start with a flood β€” they started with one of these small signs weeks or months earlier.

01

Damp, Earthy Odor

Odor is often the very first clue Des Plaines homeowners notice, well before any water is visible.

02

Cracking Near Windows or Corners

A crack that wasn't there last year is worth a look before it becomes an active leak point.

03

Powdery Residue on Walls

Efflorescence is a reliable early sign that water is moving through your Des Plaines foundation wall right now.

04

Pump Sounds Overworked

A Des Plaines sump pump that never rests is usually undersized or nearing the end of its life.

05

Wall Leaning Inward

This is one sign we tell Des Plaines customers never to wait on β€” wall movement tends to progress, not resolve on its own.

06

Soft Spots in the Floor

Peeling paint near the floor upstairs is one of the last signs Des Plaines homeowners connect to a basement problem.
