Know the Signs

Is Your Houghton Basement Trying to Tell You Something?

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

01

Damp, Earthy Odor

A musty smell usually means moisture is already moving through your Houghton basement, even if the floor looks bone dry.

02

New Cracks in the Foundation

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

03

Efflorescence on Concrete

It's easy to mistake efflorescence for harmless dust, but it actually signals active moisture movement.

04

Pump Sounds Overworked

If your pump only shuts off for a few minutes at a time, it's worth having it checked before it fails outright.

05

Wall Leaning Inward

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

06

Soft Spots in the Floor

These upstairs clues usually show up months after the basement moisture problem actually started.
