A damaged or aging window well can lead to serious problems for your basement. One of the most noticeable signs is rust or corrosion, which weakens the structure and can lead to leaks. Cracks in the well or the surrounding foundation are another red flag, as they allow water to seep into your home. If you notice water pooling in the well after rain, it’s likely that the drainage system is no longer functioning properly. Over time, some window wells can bow or warp, creating gaps that let in debris or moisture.
