Basement Waterproofing in Fenton, MI

Review Logo 4.8 (331)

In Fenton, your basement serves as a vital space for storage, recreation, or even a home office, but it is also at risk of water damage due to the area's soil composition and weather patterns. The clay soil prevalent in Fenton can retain moisture, leading to increased pressure on your basement walls during heavy rain or snowmelt. This can result in cracks, leaks, and a damp environment conducive to mold growth. Foundation Systems of Michigan offers comprehensive basement waterproofing solutions, including sump pumps, interior drainage systems, and vapor barriers, to keep your basement dry and healthy.

Foundation Systems of Michigan (FSM), a Groundworks Company, is dedicated to providing Fenton homeowners with top-tier foundation repair, basement waterproofing, crawl space encapsulation, concrete, gutter, and generator solutions.

"When we had FSM do the basement at our house in Warren, Brian Maike and his team were outstanding. I wish everyone I did business with was as polite and professional. When the city inspector came out, he told me: “I will inspect the work because it’s my job. But from experience I can tell you before I begin FSM has done everything as it should be done.” He took me through the inspection and the key points that substantiated his claim. When my daughter was recently considering the purchase of a home, her realtor pointed out FSM had waterproofed the basement. That was a contributing factor in her decision to purchase the home."

Common Causes of your Basement Problems in Fenton

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.
