Dayton Ohio Basement Waterproofing Systems, Foundation Repairs

Is your basement at risk for leaks and foundation damage?

Chances are, if you haven’t already seen damage in your basement, you have no idea whether it’s at risk. That’s because damage starts at the outside of the basement wall, and gradually works inward. So once you see evidence of water damage, there’s a good chance it’s been going on for some time.

Here’s how it happens:

Rain water flows off your roof, into gutters, through down spouts and into the ground around your home. Where does it go next? Well that depends on whether you have a basement waterproofing system installed.

A properly installed basement waterproofing system allows water to drain into underground pipes that line a house’s foundation. These pipes carry water away from the home, keeping the basement wall dry.

If no such waterproofing system in installed, water will soak into the soil around your home, until the ground is saturated. The moisture creates a significant amount of pressure on the outside of your basement wall, which can be detrimental to your foundation.

If this problem isn’t caught early, it can lead to thousands of dollars in repairs later on.
