Know the Signs

What Usually Comes Before a Flooded Basement

Water problems build slowly before they become emergencies. These are the clues our Cato crews hear about most.

01

Musty Basement Smell

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

02

Hairline Wall Cracks

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

03

Powdery Residue on Walls

That white powder on basement walls is mineral residue left behind as water passes through the concrete.

04

Pump Cycling Constantly

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

05

Bowing Basement Walls

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

06

Bubbling Paint Near the Baseboard

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

What We Fix

New & Replacement Sump Pumps

French Drain Installation

Some Cato properties need both systems working together โ€” we'll say so honestly instead of selling just one.

Crawl Space Encapsulation

A damp Cato crawl space drives up humidity throughout the house โ€” we seal it completely with heavy-duty vapor barrier and add dehumidification where needed.
