Homes that are old enough to need a look
Much of West Bloomfield's growth came after the 1960s, so many homes here are at least a few decades old. That is not old for a house, but it is old for the parts that keep a basement dry. The sump pump has probably been replaced once, or should be. The sealant on cracks has aged. The soil backfilled against the foundation has settled and may now slope toward the house.
None of that means there is a problem today. It means a free inspection is worth having before the first wet spring that shows you one.
Lakes, ponds and a wet spring
The township is dotted with lakes. Pine Lake lies completely inside it, Cass Lake lies partly inside it, and about one-eighth of the township's area is water. After snowmelt or a few days of heavy rain the ground around a house can stay saturated for a long time, and a basement that was dry all summer can take on water at the wall-floor joint or through a crack.
If the basement is finished, what matters is where the water gets in before it reaches the carpet and drywall. We check the walls, the joint, the sump and where the discharge line sends the water, then give you a written quote for what the house actually needs.

Questions from West Bloomfield homeowners
Do you work in West Bloomfield, and how far is it from your base?
Yes. Swift Dry works in West Bloomfield, which is in Oakland County and about 6 miles from our base in Farmington Hills. Every job starts with a free inspection and a written quote. The distance is approximate and is not a promise of arrival time.
My basement is finished. How do you find where the water is getting in?
We check the walls inside and out, the joint where the wall meets the floor, the sump and where the discharge line sends the water. We find where the water is getting in before we recommend anything, and we say so when a smaller fix will do.
