Does your basement have a hatchway door? If so, this may be another route for rainwater to get inside. Older hatchway doors can rot and the caulking can deteriorate. All of this makes for conditions that can lead to flooded basements.
If you think your hatchway is the cause of leaks into your basement,

A mason drain is a common way to fix a hatchway leak. This is basically a long floor drain that is installed at the base of your hatchway's stairs, preventing any water from getting into your basement.
Another option is to inject the door's seams and cracks with a polyurethane resin to keep the water out. The base of the doors can be sealed as well. If necessary, your doors can be entirely replaced. For a FREE estimate, call our local, veteran-owned business at (860) 236-0071.
