Basement Waterproofing in Calabash, NC

Review Logo 4.8 (1,254)

In Calabash, where annual precipitation averages around 54 inches, below-ground basements can quickly become vulnerable to water intrusion. The region's sandy soils can lead to high groundwater levels, resulting in dampness, mold, and structural damage. To combat these issues, Tar Heel Basement Systems provides effective basement waterproofing solutions, including interior drainage systems that catch leaking water and direct it to a sump pump, which efficiently removes water from your basement. Additionally, our vapor barriers and dehumidifiers help to maintain a dry, healthy environment, reducing odors and the risk of mold growth.

Tar Heel Basement Systems, a Groundworks Company, is dedicated to offering top-tier foundation repair, basement waterproofing, crawl space encapsulation, and concrete solutions to homeowners in Calabash.

Common Causes of your Basement Problems in Calabash

Foundation Cracks

Cracks in foundation walls or floors can let water seep into your basement, especially during heavy rain.

Poor Drainage Systems

Ineffective drainage, such as clogged gutters, downspouts, or poorly graded yards, directs water toward your foundation.

Hydrostatic Pressure

Water in the soil builds pressure against basement walls, filling the clay bowl, and forcing water through cracks and joints.

High Water Table

Rising groundwater during heavy rain or snowmelt can seep into your basement through cracks or porous concrete.

Faulty or Missing Sump Pump

Water from heavy rainfall or flooding can accumulate in your basement without a working sump pump.

Plumbing Leaks

Leaking pipes or fixtures near your foundation can saturate the soil, causing water to seep into your basement and cause moisture related problems.
