You need basement crack repair before bigger problems result. As water flows through the cracks in your basement walls and floor, obviously whatever you have in your basement will get wet and damaged.
However, along with that water comes mold and larger cracks. If the cracks in your foundation freeze along with the soil around your foundation, the cracks expand and contract through the freezing and thawing process.
But there are other problems that can be associated with cracks in the basement floor and walls. Radon. Radon is a tasteless, colorless, and odorless gas that occurs naturally in soil and rock. Exposure to radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer, after smoking. It can enter your home through holes and cracks in the basement floor and walls or from well water.
