Basement Waterproofing in Polk, Ohio

water keeps coming up through the seam where my floor meets the wall, why?

That seam is the cove joint, and it's a common entry point when saturated clay builds pressure under your basement. Sealing it on the surface won't last. The real fix in Polk is interior drainage that collects the water and a sump pump that carries it out. We'll assess it during a free estimate.

do you install sump pumps with a battery backup?

Yes. Every sump system we put in can include a battery backup, which matters in Polk where a storm can cut power right when the pump is needed most. The backup keeps water moving during an outage, and it's all covered by our transferable lifetime warranty.

is a crack in my foundation something I should worry about?

It depends on the type. Vertical or diagonal cracks are often minor, but a horizontal or widening stair-step crack can signal a wall under pressure. In Polk's expansive clay we inspect each crack in person and recommend injection or reinforcement based on what we actually see.
