Ground that stays saturated for a week gives water plenty of time to find every opening.
The sandy clay between Big Indian Creek and Flat Creek holds water for a week or more after a storm, so a Perry basement is under sustained pressure for weeks. Given that much time, water will find every opening that exists.
Which is why the leaks here tend to be plural. A homeowner notices one wet spot, and once we start looking there are usually two or three ways in. Sealing one of them relieves nothing, because the water simply uses the next.
We map them all first. Cold joint, wall cracks, mortar joints in a block wall, penetrations and window wells. Then we relieve the pressure where the ground stays wet, because on the low side of a Perry lot that is what makes the repairs hold for good.
Here is what our basement leak repair work includes on a Perry home, in town or out toward the Houston County line.
