BASEMENT and FOUNDATIONS REPAIRS & WATERPROOFING

Foundation Repairs Virginia, Maryland and Washington DC

A basement is an essential part of a house that provides extra living space, storage, and utility. However, basements are prone to water damage and structural issues due to their underground location. Water infiltration can cause significant damage to the foundation and lead to mold growth, which can pose a severe health hazard. Additionally, structural issues such as cracks and bowing walls can compromise the integrity of the entire structure. Therefore, it is crucial to ensure that your basement is in excellent condition and free from any damages.

Yard Drainage Solutions

Yard drainage solutions are designed to redirect water from problem areas where water may pool or collect and drainage is poor. Most leaky basements and structural damage to foundations are generally attributed to an over-saturation of soil that could have been prevented with some type of simple yard drainage. Yard drainage could be as simple as gutter downspout extensions to elaborate systems that tie into your city storm sewers. As a general rule of thumb, it is a great idea to have your downspouts run at least 10 feet away from your foundation. It is also a good idea to avoid water discharging onto or near any pavement, as it can create an unsafe condition and possibly result in injury.
