Robertsville is a small community on US Route 30 in western Paris Township. Its homes range from older houses near the old town plat to later places on rural lots, and we keep them dry.
Joseph Robard laid out Robertsville in 1842, and a post office has operated here since 1862. It is now a census-designated place with a few hundred residents, spread along US Route 30 and the side roads nearby. Housing is a mix of older homes near the original settlement and newer houses on larger lots, many with basements, some with crawl spaces.
The community lies in the rolling southeast corner of Stark County, where the glaciers reached their limit. Slopes here send rain across yards toward low spots, and the soil is often clay that sheds water slowly. A house sitting below a road, a field or a neighbor's lot gets that runoff pressed against its foundation.
Roadside ditches, culverts and long gravel drives all move water around a property. When they clog or overflow, water pools near the house. Frost in winter and a wet thaw in spring keep the ground soaked for weeks, and the basement shows it with damp block, wet floor edges and a sump pit that stays busy.
Clay that swells in spring and shrinks by late summer keeps nudging foundation walls. Block walls take that as a horizontal crack and a slow bow. Older stone walls lose mortar, and porches or garages on shallow footings sink on their own, pulling away from the house.
We handle most repairs from the basement side. Carbon-fiber straps hold block walls at the first sign of bowing. The Richtech Stabilizer System braces walls that have moved further and can be tightened over time to bring them back toward plumb. Steel push piers lift and support settling sections, and injection seals poured wall cracks.
Interior drainage, wall membranes and footing drains that relieve water pressure and stop seepage at the source - keeping your Robertsville basement dry for good.

Mike and Ken and the other workers, what can I say? They have gone above and beyond for us. This has been a very challenging job, and Mike the owner has been back several times to make it right.
Positive experience from start to finish. Scheduled the estimate within days and got us right on the calendar for the repair. Ken was great to work with and answered my numerous questions with patience. The crew arrived on time.
Brian was the lead on the job, him and his crew were absolutely astounding. They worked extremely hard and I commend them for their professionalism and their knowledge.
It could. Water from the road and its ditches can flow downhill toward your lot. We'll check how runoff moves around the house and fix what reaches the walls with grading, downspouts or interior drainage.
If the backed-up water pools near the house, it soaks the soil against the foundation. Keeping the culvert clear helps a lot. We'll look at where water collects and whether drainage inside is also needed.
If it has bare soil or smells damp, yes. A vapor barrier over the ground and up the walls keeps moisture out of the house. A dehumidifier can help if the air stays humid.
Stains and white residue on block usually mean water is moving through the wall. Check the floor edge for dampness and see where downspouts drain. We'll inspect it for free and tell you what we find.
It can be either. A cracked slab may be fine, but a garage wall pulling away from the house points to settling footings. We'll check which it is and explain the options.
Yes. We offer 24/7 emergency response, weekends and holidays included. Call (330) 366-3028. If water is near outlets or the furnace, shut off the power to the basement first.
Clay soil and sloping ground keep feeding water toward the house long after the rain. That's why the pit keeps filling. We'll make sure the pump, float and discharge line can keep up.
Usually an interior drain along the footing, a sump pump and sealing any leaking cracks. For storage, controlling humidity matters too. We'll give you a written plan at the free inspection.
