I am very happy with the work of Victor Cruz and his crew of Xander Henderson and Deonte Petrey. They installed an Indoor French drain system. They are hard workers, did a thorough job in just two days, minimized the dust during and cleaned up the basement very well at the end of the job!

Foundation Experts in Altoona

Resting in the valleys by Brush Mountain lies Altoona and neighboring Johnstown. If you call this place home, you experience all four seasons normally, including consistent rain year-round. Rain and moisture on a vulnerable basement or foundation can be detrimental. When water and moisture isn’t properly drained or averted from your home, it can seep in and devastate the integrity of your home’s structure. Condensation and water leaking through your basement can give your home a muggy, moldy, and smelly disposition—plus increase your energy bills. 

As water interacts with the soils in your area, it can create room for structural damage in your home, too. Soils in Altoona are primarily made up of sandy, silty properties. While sand tends to drain well, silt can expand and contract depending on the amount of water it soaks in. When soil ebbs and flows like this, it causes hydrostatic pressure on your concrete and basement walls. As soil swells, it can cause your walls to bow, shift, or crack. As soil drains and shrinks, your home can react by settling and shifting. While you can’t see the soil as it changes, your home drops you hints through cracked walls or concrete, inoperable doors and windows, or buckling and uneven floors. 

No matter your home’s unique situation, Groundworks can give you relief. Pennsylvanians like you trust us to protect their home from the ground up, with long-lasting solutions in basement waterproofing, foundation repair, crawl space repair, and concrete lifting.
