Basements and Crawlspaces can be dangerous places. A damp crawlspace is a breading ground for bacteria and mold. Certain types of these molds can be very dangerous to your health causing sickness and/or death. A wet basement is no exception. We hear countless stories of people having to leave there homes and lose all their clothes and possessions because of a black mold outbreak. We also deal with other structural problem throughout this site. We will discuss different kinds of piers and anchors that can be installed and reasons for the installation. For example if you have noticed your windows sticking or cracked walls these problem can be fixed with the use of simple anchors or piers. The installation is usually less than a day, little to no mess, no waiting for concrete to dry, and no more worrying if your house is going to fall over because over time it will! Some items can be taken care of on your own while others will require the help of professionals. This site is designed to help you decide what is best for your situation. We will also recommend companies that we know to be reputable in your area. Basement waterproofing and crawl space waterproofing can be very confusing and as with any home project contractors can't always be trusted. Essentially when you have a basement or crawl space you will always have ground water rising. The cinder blocks in your home allow water to flow naturally through them. Outdoor perimeter drains do not address the problem of this and due to clay bowl effect will clog and in most cases cause foundation damage. The best way to prevent problems is with an interior drainage channel that is designed not to clog and designed to channel water out of the basement with a proper sump pump. Fill out one of the forms on this website and we will put you in touch with a Basement Systems dealer in your area.
