Put an End to Damp, Musty, or Cracked Basements
Homes naturally settle into their environment as they age, which can cause cracks and leaks to appear in your foundation. It is very important that as soon as you’ve found an issue with your foundation, crawl space or basement that you get in touch with an experienced repair company. By fixing issues early, you ensure less damage to your property down the road.
There are two primary routes to take when it comes to basement waterproofing your home:
- Installing an Interior System: By installing interior drains in your foundation, alongside piping and weep holes beneath the perimeter of your floor, we release pressure at the base of your foundation and remedy your water problem without interfering with any outside landscaping. While this is the least expensive method of solving water problems, it is also the highest risk as it does not protect from future cracks and leaking, and adds humidity to the inside of your home. If this is the route you choose, we recommend adding a ventilation system as well, to protect your home from mold.
- Completing an Exterior Excavation: Using a backhoe to dig down to your home’s foundation, we check and replace any cracked footing tiles, then seal your walls with high-quality, eco-friendly waterproofing materials. This method protects your foundation from future cracks and leaks and enhances your home’s overall drainage system. However, it is also the most labor-intensive waterproofing solution and requires new landscaping around your home.
