Basement Waterproofing in Youngstown, OH

Review Logo 4.8 (2,851)

Youngstown experiences an average annual precipitation of 40 inches of rain and about 17 inches of snow, leading to potential water issues in basements. The region's soil composition, including silt loam and silty clay, can retain moisture, which often results in flooding, wall cracks, and water intrusion. When water seeps into the basement, it can cause mold growth, musty odors, and other significant problems. Ohio Basement Authority provides effective basement waterproofing solutions, including interior drainage systems, sump pumps, and vapor barriers, to protect your home from water damage.

Common Causes of your Basement Problems in Youngstown

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.
