Common Basement Problems We Solve
Click any topic below to learn more about what’s causing the issue — and how we fix it:
Wet Basement
Damp floors and walls aren’t normal — they’re warning signs. We identify moisture sources and install waterproofing systems that last.
Basement Flooding
Frequent or unexpected flooding? We install interior drainage, sump pumps, and exterior water management to keep your basement dry for good.
Basement Mold
If your basement smells like mildew or you see black spots on walls or wood, it’s time to act. We eliminate moisture and remediate mold.
Indoor Air Quality
Basement moisture affects more than what’s below — it impacts the air you breathe upstairs too. We fix the cause and clean up the air.
