Basement Waterproofing & Foundation Repair in Pepper Pike, OH

Our Pepper Pike basement is fully finished. Can you waterproof it without gutting the whole thing?

Often, yes. We usually only need to open the lower part of the walls where the drain goes in. We'll show you exactly what has to come out and put back before we start.

Leaves clog our Pepper Pike gutters every fall. Could that be why the basement leaks?

It can be a big part of it. Clogged gutters overflow and dump roof water right at the foundation. Gutter guards, regular cleaning and longer downspout extensions help, and we'll check the basement side too.

We have a long buried line for the sump pump in Pepper Pike. What happens if it freezes?

A frozen or clogged line can stop the pump from getting water out. That can overflow the pit. We check the discharge line and can set it up so water has a relief point if the buried line freezes.

My Pepper Pike lot slopes toward the back of the house. What can we do about the runoff?

Grading, a French drain or a yard drain can catch water before it reaches the foundation. Inside, drainage and a sump handle what still gets in. We'll look at your lot and suggest what fits.

I've got a crack where our Pepper Pike addition meets the original house. Is that a problem?

The addition may be settling on a different footing than the main house. Some cracks are stable and some keep growing. We'll inspect it for free and tell you if it needs support.

We're away a lot. Can a Pepper Pike basement be protected if the power goes out?

Yes. A battery backup sump pump keeps running during outages. It's a good safeguard for homes that sit empty for stretches, especially during storm season.

It's a big basement in our Pepper Pike home. Will waterproofing take weeks?

Most waterproofing jobs take one to three days. Larger basements or extra work can add time. You'll get the schedule in writing before we begin.

Yes. We offer 24/7 emergency response for flooded basements. Call (330) 366-3028 and we'll help you limit the damage and get a crew scheduled. Move what you can off the floor.

The air in our Pepper Pike lower level feels heavy in summer. Is that a water problem?

It's often humidity, especially in finished basements. A dehumidifier can fix it. We'll also check for seepage in the walls, since that adds moisture too.
