Residential Basement Repair

No basement is exactly like another; proper inspection requires expertise and experience to identify weaknesses and failure points that must be appropriately addressed. After we have completed that process, we will provide you with the available options and the materials, labor, and costs involved with the best recommendation we can make for repairs that maximize the lifespan and value.

Of course, if you have concerns about yours, you likely have already seen some evidence of damage or foundational failure. Cracks, bulges, or crumbling basement walls are sometimes under extreme hydrostatic pressure from outside water and soil. Water moves as much as it can from areas of high pressure to low pressure and is constantly looking for weaknesses in basement structures that it can exploit.

By their design, they are in constant contact with soil and can contact groundwater. They can flood during times of heavy rain or rapid melting of snow in winter. Still, water intrusion often happens during dry weather due to water table issues or problems with normal drainage or sewer systems. Elevated groundwater and “expansive” soils often contribute to problems, and solutions sometimes involve long-term repair of poor drainage conditions.
