Protect your home or building by managing water seepage or moisture intrusion
Common interior basement waterproofing services can help prevent mold and mildew, improving basement air quality, protect your belongings from water damage, as well as protect your home or commercial building from structural damage caused by water and moisture. Having a dry basement can give you dry storage and increase your useable indoor space.
Interior Drain Tile
Interior drain tile systems are installed under your basement’s floor around the perimeter to collect groundwater and prevent flooding, managing hydrostatic pressure. This process involves digging a perimeter trench that is filled with stone and pipe, which collects water and discharge via a sump pump.
Beams & Basement Wall Support
Basement wall repairs or pilaster installation may be critical for maintaining structural integrity compromised by water or moisture damage. This work can prevent basement ceiling sagging, wall cracks, and much worse, including potential structural collapse.
Wall Cracks
Basement wall crack repair can stop water infiltration, prevent structural failure, and avoid mold, thus maintaining property value. Ignoring cracks can cause structural damage down the line, leading to more expensive repairs.
Sump Pump Installation
Installing a sump pump can help prevent basement flooding — they remove water collected by your drainage trench system. Ensure peace of mind during seasonal snowmelt or heavy rain, and prevent costly water damage.
Time of Sale Inspection
A wet basement can be a deal breaker for a home sale. Many towns require a time of sale inspection to prevent inflow and infiltration (I&I) into the sanitary sewer system.
Beyond a typical home inspection, PJK can help to to identify and repair any existing basement issues that a typical home inspector may overlook.
