Signs You Need a New Window Well Drain
Knowing when your window well drain needs repairing is not as hard as it may appear. To check if your window well drain isn’t working as it should, look out for the following:
- Pile-ups of snow, leaves or mud. Any of these can quickly cause a blockage in your system and leave it at risk of failing, especially during snowmelt or storms. A pile-up of mud or pools of water can also signal something else blocking up the drain.
- Gravel around the drain. The ground consists of a cement-like substance made from sand and dirt. Like leaves, they weaken the ability of your window well to drain rainwater.
- Water inside your basement around the window. This is a key indicator that your window well isn’t able to collect and drain any rainwater.
