Too many property owners spend thousands on foundation waterproofing when the actual source was a plumbing leak.
The waterproofing trap
Water in the basement? Call a waterproofing company. They'll likely recommend exterior excavation, membrane installation, weeping tile replacement — $10K-$30K. But what if it's actually a cracked underground pipe? Detection first saves you from unnecessary waterproofing.
Real-world example
