What kind of homes and basements does Hubbard have?

Housing ranges from early-1900s homes with masonry basements to newer homes on larger lots, some with crawl spaces.

What causes basement and foundation problems in Hubbard?

Rural drainage

Larger lots with ditches and fields can direct runoff toward homes without good grading.

Crawl spaces under additions

Additions often sit over damp crawl spaces that affect the rooms above.

Older masonry near downtown

Early-1900s homes near downtown have masonry basements with eroded mortar and failing clay drains.

Rural lots with wells and septic

Rural properties on private wells and septic systems have to route drainage around them, which limits where water can be sent.

Farmhouses on stone foundations

Older farmhouses often sit on stone foundations with dirt-floor or partial basements that stay damp for much of the year.

How does the weather in Hubbard affect basements?

Hubbard's housing is mostly postwar (44% before 1960, 37% 1960–1979) and 73% owner-occupied. Block basements of that era leak at mortar joints and the floor-wall joint during thaw and heavy rain.

  • 44% of homes were built before 1960. Basements that age were built with stone, brick or early block and often clay drain tile, before modern damp-proofing; seepage through mortar joints and failed drain tile are the usual causes of water.
  • 37% of homes date from 1960 to 1979, mostly with concrete-block basements. Block walls tend to leak at mortar joints and the floor-wall joint, and long-term soil pressure can bow them.

What do Hubbard homeowners ask most?

How can I stop field runoff from reaching my Hubbard home?

Regrading, swales and French drains can redirect surface water.

Is a crawl space under an addition a problem?

If damp or musty, it can cause cold floors and mold; drainage and encapsulation help.

Can a basement and crawl space share one sump?

Sometimes, if the drainage can be connected; otherwise each gets its own.

Can a Hubbard farmhouse with a dirt floor be dried out?

Yes. A vapor barrier, drainage and a dehumidifier can make it much drier, or it can be encapsulated like a crawl space.
