How do I prevent my basement from getting wet?

Protecting your basement from water leaks or flooding starts with identifying water intrusion sources and installing a high-quality basement waterproofing system. Your system should be tailored to your home's individual needs and may include waterproofing products such as an interior drainage system and sump pump. Learn more about how you can prevent water in your basement.

How can I make a damp basement dry?

When it comes to keeping your damp basement dry, installing a dependable basement waterproofing system is key. An interior drainage system and sump pump work in tandem to keep water out of the basement and away from your foundation while a dehumidifier keeps the air dry and prevents condensation from forming on walls, ceilings, and windows.

How do I fix a leaky basement foundation?

There are many foundation waterproofing methods and products available to prevent water intrusion. However, most water problems can't be solved with a single product or treatment. Working with a reputable waterproofing company is the best way to ensure the basement waterproofing systems that best suit your specific needs are installed.

How do I get rid of mold and musty odors in my basement?

Mold and mildew thrive in dark, moist environments where organic materials are present, such as a basement or crawl space. Fixing water leaks and protecting against future moisture intrusion with a reliable waterproofing system, as well as keeping the air dry with a dehumidifier, prevents mold growth and odors in your basement.

Basement Crack Repair in Vanceburg, Kentucky

This poured foundation wall in this Vanceburg, KY basement was leaking due to hydrostatic pressure building up outside the wall. We repaired the crack using our FlexiSpan system. First, we cleaned and prepped the crack, chipping out any loose material if necessary. Next, we applied a flexible sealant directly into the crack to form the primary seal. Then, we placed a strip of flexible, open-cell foam over the sealant, followed by an impermeable membrane to permanently seal the repair. The bottom of this system is directed into the drainage system below the floor, ensuring that any future seepage is captured and drained away instead of entering the basement. We then added our BrightWall crack cover over the stained wall. The result was a clean, dry basement wall that the homeowner could confidently finish again.

Installing the Most Efficient Dehumidifier in the World in Clarksville, Ohio

After encapsulating and insulating this crawl space, we installed the cherry on top, the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. This dehumidifier was invented by our Basement Systems team and is an exclusive product to our network, meaning you can only get this through us in our service area. Since being invented, it has been tested and tweaked over many years to have some of the best specs for a dehumidifier that does not have a clunky heat exchange core. Qualities and specs for this patented dehumidifier: Removes up to 4.17 pints of water from the air in an hour. That equals 100 pints a day! Automatic sensors to reduce energy use. Automatically discharges water. Special filters can remove mold spores, dust mites, and other particulates. Quiet noise level.

Leaking Basement in Bethel, OH

This Bethel, OH basement once had a wet floor, an outdated sump pump, and a wall on the left side beginning to cave inward. After our team installed a TripleSafe sump pump, WaterGuard subfloor drains in the coves, a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, and PowerBrace beams to stabilize the failing wall, the space turned dry, stable, and protected for the long term.

Basement Waterproofing in Pleasant Hill, Ohio

This Pleasant Hill, OH basement had water seeping through the old stone foundation walls, leaving them damp and musty after each rain. To solve the problem, our team installed WaterGuard along the perimeter, later sealed beneath a smooth concrete finish, and covered the leaky stone walls with our CleanSpace vapor barrier to block out moisture. We also added a sump pump system (not pictured) to ensure the basement stays dry year-round. The space now looks cleaner, brighter, and fully protected from future leaks.
