Services Introduction

Protecting your home from water damage requires a reliable solution to stop water intrusion. Water takes the path of least resistance and as we all know can be very destructive. When the ground surrounding your home’s foundation is saturated with rainwater, your basement if not properly waterproofed may leak. As qualified foundation builders we understand foundation drainage and how it works from outside when it rains to inside when the basement leaks. There could be many reasons why there’s water in your basement. Typically your home’s foundation is either poured concrete or constructed of CMU or concrete block. Poured foundations are prone to cracks from settling, whereas block foundations are porous and can leak at the mortar joints. Both foundation types could leak due to hydrostatic pressure where the foundation wall joins the basement floor. After a thorough evaluation, our foundation specialists will provide a comprehensive basement waterproofing solution to keep your basement dry and protect your home from further water damage.

What is included when I Waterproof my Basement?

A free evaluation and estimate is always included for any Basement Waterproofing solution we provide. Our evaluations are comprehensive and thorough. We take into account the area in your basement where the water is intruding, check your sump pump’s operation and walk the exterior perimeter of your home to look for areas of additional concern. The 20000 Leaks team will note if your gutters are cleaned, your downspouts are working and exiting away from your home’s foundation. We check your window wells and basement stairways and look for any pooling water or sink holes near your foundation. This information is noted by our estimator and is addressed in their price quotation where necessary. It is also included on the job-site check list which is shared with your Basement Waterproofing installation team.
