Basement Waterproofing in Newark, OH

Review Logo 4.2 (163)

Newark, Ohio experiences its fair share of precipitation, averaging 40 inches of rain and about 20 inches of snow each year. This amount of moisture can saturate the local silt loam, clay, and sandy soils, leading to potential water intrusion issues for homeowners. When the ground becomes overly saturated, it can exert pressure on basement walls, resulting in cracks and leaks. Factors such as poor drainage and inadequate sump pump performance can exacerbate these problems, leading to flooding, mold growth, and other serious concerns. Ohio Basement Authority offers effective basement waterproofing solutions, including the installation of interior drainage systems, sump pumps, and vapor barriers, to keep your basement dry and protected.

Common Causes of your Basement Problems in Newark

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.
