Why your neighbors trust Groundworks

We've earned 562 five star reviews.

"Absolutely could not be more impressed with the integrity, Thoroughness, and honesty I received from Mitchell at Groundworks. I have been seeing some water seepage through my poured foundation walls as well as cracks in the basement floor. I work 2 jobs and it’s difficult to make appointments where I can be home. Mitchell was more than willing to be here on a Saturday afternoon to fit my schedule. He was here over 1.5 hours inspecting, laser leveling, and checking everything he could. As much as I wanted answers, I was terrified to have the issues looked at due to financial constraints. As it turns out, I have some poor quality concrete and some minor cracking & settling going on. No immediate repairs needed. I feel like I can breathe easy again and am so so thankful for the thoroughness of Mitchell’s inspection and his honesty about what’s going on. I will continue to monitor the situation and if repairs are needed in the future, I will definitely have Groundworks out again. Definitely give these folks a try, they are fabulous."

Common Causes of your Basement Problems in Elkhorn

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.
