Spring Rains Have Hit Ohio! Basement Solutions for Springtime Woes
Basements: Keep it dry!
Spring showers might be great for flowers—but not for your basement.
Common spring basement issues
Leaks & flooding
Rainwater can seep through wall or floor cracks, leading to standing water.
Musty smells & mold
Increased humidity fosters mold, mildew, and even efflorescence (those white mineral stains).
Cracking & shifting
Freeze-thaw cycles can expand existing cracks, worsening water problems.
Our solution
We keep basements dry with proven systems like basement waterproofing, sump pumps, interior drainage, and crack repairs.
Crawl Spaces: Kick Moisture to the Curb
Your crawl space may be out of sight, but spring humidity makes it a hotspot for hidden damage.
Common crawl space concerns
Condensation & mold
Damp air can destroy insulation and trigger mold growth and wood rot.
Pests & sagging floors
Warm, damp spaces invite pests and weaken floor joists.
Our solution
Our crawl space encapsulation, vapor barriers, dehumidifiers, and SmartJack™ support systems keep your crawl space clean, dry, and stable.
Foundations: Stop the shift before it starts
As soil thaws and spring storms hit, your foundation may start to show signs of movement.
What to look out for
Cracks & settling
Changes in soil moisture can lead to shifting and cracking.
Erosion & hydrostatic pressure
Poor drainage can wash away soil and cause basement walls to bow or lean.
Our solution
We offer foundation piers, helical anchors, and drainage improvements designed to permanently stabilize and support your home.
