SITE 4

c1760 Masonry Dwelling

Norfolk, VA

This property is situated along the waterfront.  The owners noted recurrent basement flooding that was not tied to major storm activity.  After further analysis and moisture monitoring, BRS used additional datapoints to document that the source of the flooding was improper management of ground water.  Relatively simple solutions for redirecting ground water were provided to the property owner, thus preventing a minor problem from turning into a major structural issue.
