According to the Lake County, Illinois website, roughly 20 percent of the county is covered by surface water from streams, lakes, wetlands, and floodplains. Since most storms approach Lake County from the west, the western side of the house should not be overlooked.

Here are some flood-proofing tips for foundations and basements from the Lake County website:

Inspecting Foundation and Repairing Cracks

Take time to thoroughly inspect the foundation of your home and make repairs where necessary. What to look for when waterproofing your basement:

1. Wall crack repair/sealing
2. Cove seepage
3. Leaking mortar block joints
4. Sump pump issues/impeller; battery back-up; capacity; discharge location/routing (the longer and smaller the discharge hose, the less water can be pumped through it)
5. Leaking windows
6. Window well filling
