Permanent Solutions For Wet Basements

By: SecretRewards Home | Business


Wet basements are caused by a number of different problems and each one has its own solution. Sometimes a small floor crack or wall crack leaks during the rainy season, and other times there may be a bowed wall or cracked wall causing steady water seepage all year round. Whatever the cause, Ozark Waterproofing can solve the problem quickly and efficiently with professional repairs that are guaranteed to work. Serving the Branson, Springfield, St. Louis, and surrounding areas of Missouri we have the expertise and experience you need to permanently dry your basement out and give you back that space.

Basement repair is our main line of work and we have several methods to choose from depending upon your situation. Sometimes a simple sump pump will solve minor leaks, while other situations call for a permanent gravity drain or an engineered approach such as the Waterguard system of basement waterproofing. Whatever your situation is we have a solution to match. We have been providing basement systems and basement repair for years and have hundreds of satisfied customers.

Wet walls cause more than moisture problems - they are also a common source of mold and mildew and can lead to serious health problems. Mold remediation is one of our specialties, and we can solve the problem by stopping the moisture at the source, preventing further spread of the spores to other parts of your home. Get rid of that damp, musty smell and stop the moisture from doing more permanent damage to your home by calling Ozark Waterproofing today. We can send an expert over to evaluate your situation and provide an instant quote, and you can get back in your basement again and start using it for whatever you want.

Water seeping through concrete actually weakens the concrete as well, because concrete contains steel rods or steel mesh that can corrode when wet. This corrosion of the rebar spreads to other parts of the wall that aren't even wet, causing a weakening and eventually crumbling of the walls, leading to much larger problems than just a water leak. Left alone a simple water leak can destroy a basement over a few years time.

Crawl spaces are just as likely to harbor mold and moisture as basements are. At Ozark Waterproofing, we offer a specialized process of encapsulating your crawl space to ensure that moisture is kept out. This helps prevent moist air from doing damage to the rest of your home and keeps mold and mildew from creeping in with the warm moist air from your wet crawl space.

We also install basement entrance systems and finishing products as well as dehumidification. We can install or repair helical piers and anchors and solve many other related foundation and structural concrete issues. You will see energy savings in the form of lower heating and air conditioning bills as well as an immediate increase in the value of your home from our services. If you are selling your home you will want to have a dry basement, and our warranty is transferable to the new owners. Give us a call today to get a custom solution quote.
