Why does my basement leak after heavy rain?
When the ground around your house is soaked, the water in the soil presses against the foundation and looks for a way in. It usually finds one at cracks in the wall or at the joint where the wall meets the floor. Poor drainage around the house makes it worse.
What is the white powder on my basement walls?
It's called efflorescence: minerals left behind when water soaks through the block and evaporates. It means water is moving through the wall, even if you've never seen a puddle.
How do you stop the water?
We install systems that divert water away from the foundation and seal the cracks and joints where it gets in. Which system depends on where the water is coming from, which is what the free inspection finds out.
Can you fix my sump pump?
Yes. We repair and replace sump pumps. One customer wrote that our tech replaced his main sump pump “in a short amount of time and made sure that it was perfect.”
