Basement Waterproofing & Foundation Repair in Perry Heights, OH

The space between our Perry Heights house and the neighbor's stays soggy. Could that wet our basement?

Yes. Narrow side yards collect runoff from two roofs, and the water soaks in right beside the foundation. We'll look at grading and downspouts on your side. Drainage inside the basement catches what still gets through.

My Perry Heights bungalow has a block basement with damp lower rows. Why just the bottom?

Water usually collects at the footing first, so the lowest block courses get wet before the rest. The hollow cores can fill and seep at the base. An interior drain along the footing sends that water to a sump.

We live near Sippo Lake Park in Perry Heights. Does that raise our risk of basement water?

It can, if your lot sits low. Ground near ponds and creeks tends to stay wet longer after heavy rain. We'll check how water moves on your property during a free estimate and explain what we find.

Is a stair-step crack in a Perry Heights basement something I should fix soon?

It's worth a look soon. Stair-step cracks in block often mean soil pressure is pushing the wall. We'll measure for bowing. If the wall is moving, straps or braces from inside can stop it.

Our Perry Heights ranch has a crawl space under the back addition. Can you seal that too?

Yes. We put vapor barriers over the soil and up the walls in crawl spaces and can add a dehumidifier. We'll also check how that area connects to the basement, since both often share the same water problem.

I don't want to wait on a flooded basement in Perry Heights. Can your crew come fast?

Yes. We offer 24/7 emergency response for flooded basements. Call (330) 366-3028 and we'll get moving. Stay clear of water near outlets and shut off power only if the panel is safe to reach.

My neighbor in Perry Heights got a sump pump. Do all these homes need one?

Not every house needs one. It depends on your soil, your grading and whether water is getting in now. We'll tell you honestly after the inspection whether a sump makes sense for yours.

We're turning the Perry Heights basement into a playroom. What should we look at before building?

Check for dampness, seepage and humidity before framing. If the walls or floor are wet, fix that first so drywall and carpet stay dry. We'll tell you exactly what the space needs.

Yes, we offer financing options. We'll go over them at the free estimate. You'll have the written price before you decide, and there's never pressure to sign that day.
