Basement Waterproofing in Wooster, OH

Review Logo 4.8 (2,851)

Wooster, Ohio, experiences an average annual precipitation of about 40 inches of rain and approximately 17 inches of snow, which can lead to significant water intrusion issues in basements. The region's soil composition, primarily consisting of silt loam and clay, tends to retain moisture, creating a perfect environment for flooding and water damage. This excessive water can cause basement walls to crack, leading to further structural damage and mold growth. Ohio Basement Authority offers comprehensive basement waterproofing solutions, including interior drainage systems and reliable sump pumps, to prevent these problems and keep your basement dry and healthy.

Why your neighbors trust Ohio Basement Authority

We've earned 2,605 five star reviews.

"I hired Ohio Basement Authority to encapsulate my crawlspace in late July, and bury two of my downspouts on my house. They did everything exactly how my salesperson, Matt, indicated, including coming on the day work was scheduled to be completed and notifying me when they were on their way. Their finished work exceeded my expectations, and all musty odors have disappeared. We even had a heavy rain storm about one week after the work was complete, and my crawlspace stayed completely dry. I would highly recommend Ohio Basement Authority to anyone looking to have their crawlspace professionally encapsulated."

Common Causes of your Basement Problems in Wooster

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.
