Partly ConcealedBlockFoundation Wall

Almost every basement leaks under the right conditions. Based on a one time visit, it's impossible to knowhow often or severe leaks may be. While we look for evidence of past leakage during the inspection, this isoften not a good indicator of current conditions. Exterior conditions such as poorly performing gutters &downspouts, and ground sloping towards the house often cause basement leakage problems.What to do if your basement leaks:1. Ensure gutters and downspouts carry roof run-off away from home2. If problems persist, slope the ground (including walkways, patio and driveways) to direct water away fromthe home.3. If the problem is not resolved and the foundation is poured concrete, seal and leaking cracks and form-tieholes from the inside.4. As a last resort, damnproof the exterior of the foundation, provide a drainage membrane and add/repairperimeter drainage tile (warning high cost).

Block foundation had normal moisture readings and is in satisfactory condition, except 2 areas whereelevated readings were found (behind boiler on block wall 12" up & block wall above and below watermeter). Recommend to monitor these 2 areas in future.
