Wet basement or sewer backup? Know which one you have

Groundwater seeping through walls or the floor is a waterproofing problem (drain tile, sump pump, crack repair). Water coming up through a floor drain during heavy rain is often a sewer backup, which calls for backflow protection or an overhead sewer. Many Bloomingdale homeowners need to know which before paying for a fix.

What Bloomingdale offers homeowners

Bloomingdale makes homeowners responsible for the sewer lateral on their property up to the right-of-way, and handles repairs in the right-of-way once the problem is located. Its Sewer Service Grant Program reimburses 50%, up to $5,000, for overhead sewers or gate/flap valves after a documented backup.

Housing in Bloomingdale

About 22,382 people lived in Bloomingdale in the 2020 Census. The median home there was built around 1981, and the biggest share of its housing went up between 1970 and 1989 (10% before 1970, 55% from 1970–1989, 32% from 1990–2009, 3% since 2010). Roughly 45% of homes are detached single-family houses and 23% are townhouses or other attached single-family homes; about 75% of households own their home.

Many Bloomingdale homes date from 1970–1989. Those basements often have a sump pit already; check pump age, discharge location and whether you have a battery backup before a storm season.

Ask any waterproofing contractor for a written diagnosis of where the water is coming from, what they'll fix, and whether a village permit is needed.
