Flooded Window Wells – what do I do?

Water, water everywhere…

and it’s leaking into your basement!

This is not a sight that anyone wants to see when going down the basement stairs.  Sometimes it’s a once-in-a-blue-moon freak storm situation where this has not happened before.

Flooded Window Wells

Yikes! Look at this flooded window well that could have been prevented with a proper window well cover

More often than not, it’s a call to our experts by a frustrated homeowner saying, “My window wells are constantly flooding, what can I do?”

Keeping Your Window Wells Clean and Dry

Getting window well covers that fit properly will not only improve the appearance of your home, and help to keep your window wells clean and dry, and you will only have to do it once!  Our Polycarbonate Window Well Covers keep out snow and rain, dirt and debris, and people and animals; we use a quality plastic that is UV treated for a long, long life span.  We expect that you will have a window well cover that will give you over twenty years longevity.

Of course, in some cases a window well cover will not cure all your water woes.  There are a number of other things that impact your window wells.  Look up–are your gutters clogged or non existent?  Look around–what is the lay of your land like? If your home is the lowest area in the block, a window well cover is going to help, but will not be the cure.

In these cases, a professional may be in order.  Be sure to get a few bids from different companies, check their ratings on line, and get referrals.

We’ll be glad to give you any help you need to get the right window well cover for your needs.  If a picture paints a thousand words in your case, go to http://windowwellexperts.com/contact-us/ and email us a photo to info@windowwellexperts.com.
