Basement Waterproofing in Fargo, ND

Review Logo 4.7 (524)

Fargo homeowners often face the challenge of wet basements due to the region's climate and soil conditions. With an average annual precipitation of about 20 inches, water can easily infiltrate basements through cracks in walls and floors, leading to issues such as mold growth, musty odors, and structural damage. The clay-rich soils prevalent in Fargo can retain moisture, making it difficult for basements to stay dry during heavy rains or melting snow. Innovative Basement Authority offers effective waterproofing solutions, including sump pumps, internal drains, and dehumidifiers, to help keep your basement dry and healthy.

Innovative Basement Authority (IBA), a Groundworks Company, is dedicated to helping Fargo homeowners with their foundation repair, basement waterproofing, crawl space encapsulation, and concrete needs.

Common Causes of your Basement Problems in Fargo

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.
