Basement Waterproofing Systems & Services

• Interior Waterproofing

Waterproofing from inside the basement environment may involve the installation of perimeter drains, sump pumps, and repairs for leaking plumbing lines. Drains in the basement are able to collect water that gets inside through windows, the cove joint, or through foundation cracks. Once water is inside of these drainage systems, it is sent into a sump pump. When water inside of the sump pit reaches a certain level, it is sent out and away from the home. When the inside of the basement is dry, safe, and healthy, homeowners don't need to worry about issues water can cause to the foundation or to anything that may be stored here.

• Exterior Waterproofing

Waterproofing outside of the basement will involve taking care of exterior foundation cracks. Oftentimes, water is able to get into a home through cracks on a foundation deep below the ground. To take care of this problem, we can dig around the damaged wall and apply an exterior waterproofing membrane that will stop water from penetrating through the crack and getting into your home. Exterior waterproofing also involves taking care of poor yard grading or drainage issues which may involve water pooling up in certain spots on your lawn.

• Sump Pump

A sump basin and sump pump are an integral part of any waterproofing system. As mentioned above, it collects water from drainage systems and pushes this moisture out and away from the home to a safe distance away from where it won't be able to seep back into the soil and into the home again. We can also install battery backup systems that will be activated in case the primary pump fails, or if the sump happens to lose electricity during a storm.

Professional bowed wall repair

If you have a bowed wall in your basement you have a serious but fixable problem that can be repaired by our professionals here at Missouri Foundation Repair & Waterproofing. We have been providing bowed wall repair services to homeowners and residents for years. Bowed walls can cause many other foundation issues if not taken care of in a timely fashion. 

Bowing walls are a common issue that is seen when there is hydrostatic pressure pushing on the foundation walls. This pressure is created whenever the soil expands when it absorbs moisture after heavy rain, or when there is melting snow on the lawn. This can also occur due to a lack of moisture which causes the soil to compact, adding pressure to the wall structure

Home crawl space Repair

When you need assistance with your crawl space, look for the professionals at Missouri Foundation Repair & Waterproofing to provide you with the solution. We cover all aspects of crawl space repair and crawl space waterproofing making sure you get the best services in the area. Many homeowners do not give much thought to this space below their home, but they should. What happens in the crawl space can have an influence on the rest of the home. 

• Leaky/Wet Crawl Space

When a crawl space isn't sealed off from the outside environment, it's going to have moisture inside of it whenever it rains, or when there is melting snow on the lawn. The water lays stagnant here, and as you can likely imagine, it's going to cause problems for wooden materials here below your home. Wet crawl spaces often cause the most damage to your entire home, exacerbating each problem that follows.

• Sagging Floors/Joists

Moisture can cause the floor joists below your home to warp, rot, sag, and deteriorate. When this happens, you may notice that there are certain spots on the first floor of the home that feel like they are not level. This is because the floor is very weak in these spots. All of this deteriorating wood is also very attractive to unwanted critters, such as termites and mosquitoes. Get sagging crawl space floor joists looked at immediately and save your home.

• Damp/Moldy Crawl Space

Water in a crawl space can also lead to the growth of harmful mold and bacteria. Mold is typically dark green or black in color, and it needs three things to survive: water, high humidity levels, and organic materials to feed. These three "ingredients" are typically found in any crawl space environment that isn't sealed off. Moldy crawl spaces can make your home smell musty, and it can cause a variety of serious health problems in individuals of all ages.
