Basement Waterproofing in Randolph, OH

I can't tell if it's surface water or groundwater getting into my Randolph basement. Which is it?

Often both. Runoff from fields, roofs and driveways soaks the soil beside your house, and the clay holds it against the wall. We fix the outside causes first and add drainage for whatever still reaches the foundation.

Our Randolph farmhouse has a fieldstone basement. Can it be kept dry?

Yes. Fieldstone lets water through the joints, so we collect it at the footing with a drain and wall membrane and pump it out. A dehumidifier deals with the damp air stone gives off.

We lose power a lot out in Randolph. Do I need a backup sump pump?

We'd recommend one. The storms that bring the most rain are the ones most likely to drop rural power, and a sump without power can't move water. A battery backup switches on by itself and keeps the pit from overflowing.

Part of my Randolph home sits over a crawl space. Can you handle that too?

Yes. We lay a heavy vapor barrier over the crawl space floor and up the walls, seal the seams, and connect any standing water to a drain and sump. That keeps ground moisture out of the floors above.

How messy is basement waterproofing at a Randolph house?

Expect some noise and dust in the basement while we work. The crew covers your belongings, hauls away the dirt and old concrete, and cleans up every evening. The rest of the house stays usable.

Snow drifts against one side of our Randolph house every winter. Could that cause the leak?

It can. A drift melts right against the wall and soaks that section of backfill again and again. A footing drain on that side catches the meltwater, and grading helps it run off.

The field next door drains toward my Randolph home. What's the fix?

Grading and a shallow swale along the edge of your yard can steer that runoff around the house. We'll look at how water crosses your lot, fix what we can outside, and drain whatever still reaches the foundation.

How long will your crew be at our Randolph place?

Most Randolph basements take one to three days. Outside grading or downspout work is usually done in the same visit. You'll get the schedule in writing before we start.

Does the warranty transfer if I sell my Randolph property?

Yes. Our lifetime warranty is written and goes to the next owner. It's a simple way to show a buyer the basement problem was fixed for good.
