Basement Waterproofing in Dayton, OH

Review Logo 4.2 (161)

Southwestern Ohio locations like Dayton don't get anywhere near the precipitation that the snow belt experiences, but our area's 40 inches of rain and 17 inches of snow per year can still cause damage. Water from all this precipitation soaks the silt loam, silty clay, and sandy loam soils, which can not only flood but expand, press on the basement walls, and lead to wall cracks and water intrusion. Poor foundation drainage and malfunctioning sump pumps also might not be able to keep up with this water. Flooding, wet walls and floors, mold, musty odors, condensation, and efflorescence are all problems you will notice in your basement. Ohio Basement Authority can keep these issues from happening ever again by installing an interior drainage system, sump pump, dehumidifier, wall vapor barrier, and other permanent basement waterproofing solutions.

"Julio and his team went above and beyond making sure the basement of a historic church was taken care of better than a newborn to first time parents. The cleanliness, communication and pride of work is totally worth the investment. From Chelsa (sales rep) to the install team, it was a fantastic experience! Thank you!! 🙏"

Common Causes of your Basement Problems in Dayton

Hydrostatic Pressure

When groundwater accumulates around your foundation, it exerts pressure on basement walls and floors, leading to cracks and water seepage.

Poor Drainage Systems

Inadequate drainage systems fail to divert water away from the foundation, resulting in water accumulation that can compromise structural integrity.

Foundation Cracks

Natural settling or poor construction practices can cause foundation cracks, allowing water to penetrate your basement.

Gutter and Downspout Issues

Improper installation or clogging of gutters and downspouts directs water toward the foundation, exacerbating water infiltration problems.

High Water Table

During heavy rainfall or snowmelt, a high water table exerts pressure against basement walls, causing water to seep through cracks or joints.

Plumbing Leaks

Leaks from plumbing systems can saturate the soil around the foundation, leading to erosion and weakening of the structure.

Understanding these common causes can help you take proactive steps to protect your basement from water damage and maintain the integrity of your home.
