Basement Waterproofing & Foundation Repair in Mifflin, OH

Our Mifflin house has a stone cellar that's been there for generations. Can it be dried out?

Often, yes. Old stone cellars leak through the mortar and may have dirt floors. We can add drainage, a sump and a vapor barrier, depending on how the space is built and how you use it.

I live near Charles Mill Lake in Mifflin. Does that raise the water table under my house?

Land near a lake or stream can hold more groundwater, especially after long rains. That puts pressure on basement walls and floors. We'll check how water behaves around your home during a free inspection.

My Mifflin basement only leaks after days of steady rain. Why the delay?

Clay soil soaks up water slowly, then holds it. After several days of rain it becomes saturated and pressure builds on the walls. That's when seepage starts. Drainage and a sump handle it.

We've got a back porch in Mifflin that's tilting. Is that a foundation problem?

Porches often sit on shallow footings that settle on their own. The tilt can pull on the house too. Steel push piers can support the footing, and we'll check it first.

Can you seal a Mifflin crawl space that has a dirt floor?

Yes. We cover the soil and walls with a sealed vapor barrier and add a dehumidifier if needed. If water collects there, we deal with that first so the barrier stays dry.

The paint on my Mifflin basement walls keeps flaking off. What's causing it?

Moisture is pushing through the wall from behind and lifting the paint. Paint alone can't stop it. We'll find where the water comes from and recommend a lasting fix.

Is it normal for an old Mifflin home to have a damp basement?

It's common, but it's not something you have to live with. Old walls weren't built to keep water out. Drainage, a sump and humidity control can make an old basement much drier.
