Edinburg Township is farmland, orchards and rural homes in southeastern Portage County. We waterproof basements, seal crawl spaces and repair foundations for Edinburg homeowners, with free estimates and our own crew.
Edinburg has been farm country since pioneers built cabins here in the 1810s. The township was organized in 1819 and named for settler Lewis Eddy, first as Eddysburg. It still has no village inside its borders. Most properties are rural homes, many set among fields, pastures and orchards on the good farm soil the township is known for.
Three small streams cross the township: Barrel Run in the west, Bixon Creek through the middle and Silver Creek in the east. The ground between them is mostly gentle, and low spots near the creeks stay wet after storms. Water that can't drain off the surface soaks into the clay-rich glacial till and sits against basement walls.
State Route 14 follows an old military road laid out in 1802, and homes of many ages face it and the roads that cross it. An older farmhouse may have a stone or block cellar with no drain at all, while a newer ranch has a poured wall with tie-rod holes. Both can leak, and each needs its own fix.
Clay soil on level farmland swells in wet months and shrinks in dry ones, and hard frost heaves it every winter. Over decades that movement cracks poured walls, pushes block walls inward and lets porches and attached garages drop below the main house. Edinburg homes near the creeks can see stronger swings because the soil there stays wetter.
Most fixes happen inside the basement. Carbon-fiber straps stop early bowing. The Richtech Stabilizer System anchors steel braces to the floor and framing, and those braces can be tightened to move a wall back toward plumb. Steel push piers lift settled corners, and injection closes leaking cracks.
Interior drainage, wall membranes and footing drains that relieve water pressure and stop seepage at the source - keeping your Edinburg basement dry for good.

We recently hired All American Basement Waterproofing to address some structural and moisture issues in our basement, and we couldn't be happier with the results. Mike and his team installed carbon fiber straps on one of our basement walls.
Exceptional basement waterproofing, highly recommend. I had an outstanding experience with All American Basement for my basement.
We had our cellar door stairs waterproofed, a drain in the basement and downlines for our gutters installed. The crew was great to work with.
Land near a creek often has a higher water table and soil that stays wet longer. That can mean more pressure on your basement walls after rain. We'll look at the grading and the sump and explain what your basement needs.
Yes. We can cut a drain into the floor along the walls and run it to a new sump pit. Older cellars sometimes need extra care around stone or uneven footings. We'll check it first and plan the route.
It may be. High humidity often comes from water moving through the walls or floor, or from a crawl space with bare soil. Finding the source can cut down how hard the dehumidifier has to work. We'll check during a free visit.
Many hairline cracks are shrinkage cracks from when the wall cured. If it leaks, widens or has one side sticking out, it needs attention. We can seal it with injection and tell you whether support is needed.
Yes. Our 24/7 emergency response covers weekends and holidays for flooded basements. Call (330) 366-3028 and we'll get people moving. Turn off power to the basement if you can reach the panel safely.
It might be the garage footing, or just the slab cracking on its own. We'll check whether the walls and corners have moved. Push piers can support a garage section that is truly settling.
Usually, yes. Stains, efflorescence and musty air are hard to hide, and inspectors look for them. Fixing the problem and passing along our transferable lifetime warranty gives the buyer confidence.
It's a smart step. An addition ties into the existing walls, so cracks or movement there can carry into the new work. We'll inspect for free and tell you if anything should be fixed before building.
Yes, financing options are available. We'll explain them during your free estimate, after you have the written plan and price in hand. You're free to take time to decide.
