Basement Waterproofing in Mount Airy, NC

Review Logo 4.8 (1,373)

In Mount Airy, where the average annual precipitation hovers around 45 inches, basements can face significant challenges from water intrusion. The region's clay soil tends to retain moisture, which can lead to hydrostatic pressure build-up and severe flooding, especially during heavy rains. Homeowners may encounter mold growth, efflorescence, and musty odors if their basements are not adequately waterproofed. To combat these issues, Tar Heel Basement Systems offers customizable solutions including interior drainage systems, sump pumps, vapor barriers, and dehumidifiers to keep your basement dry and safe.

Common Causes of your Basement Problems in Mount Airy

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.
