We Treat Your Home Like Our Own
High water tables and compacted soils can cause recurring basement leaks. Keeping your basement from leaking is no easy task. Find out what issues your basement might be susceptible to.
Heavy rainfall or melting snow can cause basement flooding which result in weakness in the ground beneath your foundation. Foundation sinking, bowing basement walls, and other structural damage can occur as the supporting ground softens. In the process, your’re left with an ideal environment for the growth of mold and mildew.
Humidity in the soil and air releases destructive water vapor, debris, contaminates, and pollen. This damp air carries mold spores and musty odors, providing the perfect environment for insects and other pests, as well as wood rot. These issues affect your home’s structure and the quality of air in your living spaces.
All soil can expand and contract after a heavy rain or drought. When the soil supporting your foundation changes, it can cause your home to shift. During wet weather, water saturates surrounding soil, causing it to swell and push against subterranean walls. This lateral pressure can make basement walls bulge or leak, causing a wet and smelly basement.
Our latest project involved addressing visible foundation cracks affecting the integrity of this home. The repairs focused on sealing the gaps to prevent water intrusion and further structural issues. This essential maintenance ensures long-term stability and peace of mind for the homeowners.
Addressing foundational concerns, we recently performed a thorough foundation leveling project. Visible cracks and settling around the base of the home were corrected to ensure structural integrity. This preventive measure strengthens the property and mitigates future issues.
