There are several types of problems that can result in water leaking into basement rooms, many of which relate to your plumbing, sewers, and drains. In some cases, water seeps in through cracks in the walls or foundation, but serious flooding more commonly results from things that require plumbing repairs. Some of the most common causes of water leaking into basement areas include:

•  Burst or broken plumbing pipes. Exposed water pipes in your basement can succumb to corrosion and begin leaking, or even break severely and begin violently spraying water. This is a common reason for basement water leak repair, and should be addressed immediately to stave off flooding and prevent water damage.
• Leaking water heaters. Many New Jersey homeowners have their water heater located in the basement. When the tank begins to rust and corrode, it can start to leak out water, which pools around the base of the water heater.
• Failed sump pump or sewer drain backup. Since most basements are located below ground level, a sump pump is often required to pump water upward against gravity, preventing flooding during heavy rains.
