Basement Waterproofing in Edinburg, OH

Our Edinburg cellar floor is always wet in April. Can that really be fixed?

Yes. A floor that stays wet in spring usually means groundwater is rising under and around the footing. An interior drain and sump pit collect that water and pump it out. We'll check your basement for free and explain the plan.

My Edinburg sump pit fills fast even without rain. Why?

In low areas near a creek, the water table can stay high for days or weeks. The pit is doing its job by collecting that water. We'll make sure the pump, float and discharge line can keep up.

We're on a farm in Edinburg with lots of roof area. Could that be flooding our basement?

It can add a lot. Large roofs send a lot of water down the downspouts during a storm. If that water ends up at the foundation, it soaks the clay right beside your walls. Extending the downspouts helps.

I'd like my Edinburg crawl space sealed. Where do we start?

We start with an inspection to see whether the crawl space is just damp or collecting water. Damp soil gets a sealed vapor barrier and maybe a dehumidifier. Standing water may also need a drain and sump.

Is interior drainage worth it in an old Edinburg farmhouse?

Usually, yes. Old cellars rarely had working drains, so water builds up at the footing. An interior drain relieves that pressure without digging around the outside of the house. We'll check the walls first.

The paint keeps peeling off our Edinburg basement walls. Should we repaint?

Peeling paint usually means moisture is pushing through the wall. Repainting won't stop it. We'll find where the water comes from and fix that, and then a finish can stay on the wall.

How much mess does basement waterproofing make in an Edinburg home?

Cutting the floor makes dust and noise, so we protect the area and clean up each day. Most work stays in the basement. We'll tell you what to move before we start.
