Our Des Plaines home inspectors frequently identify these local property concerns:
Des Plaines River Flood Exposure
Homes within several blocks of the Des Plaines River in Des Plaines sit in documented flood plains with recurring basement water intrusion.
Basement Seepage / Efflorescence
Basement walls commonly show signs of moisture intrusion and efflorescence due to high groundwater.
Post-WWII Foundation Cracking
1950s poured concrete and concrete block foundations in Des Plaines commonly exhibit diagonal, vertical, or horizontal cracking due to soil pressure, settlement, and age-related deterioration.
Aging Galvanized Supply Plumbing
Post-war Des Plaines homes built before 1960 frequently still have galvanized steel water supply lines with significant internal corrosion.
Sewer Lateral Clay Tile Failure
Older neighborhoods commonly have clay tile sewer laterals that are prone to cracking, joint separation, and tree root intrusion, leading to blockages and potential backups.
Sump and Drainage System Stress
Low-lying areas near the river and tributaries often experience elevated groundwater levels, placing heavy demand on sump pump systems, especially during spring thaw and heavy rain events.
