FOUNDATION REPAIR, STRUCTURAL REPAIR & BASEMENT WATERPROOFING
IN CENTRAL OHIO
Foundation & Basement Waterproofing in Central Ohio
Able Basement and Structural Solutions provides professional foundation and basement waterproofing throughout Central Ohio. We help homeowners and commercial property owners address water intrusion, hydrostatic pressure, foundation moisture and drainage problems with waterproofing systems designed to help move water away from the foundation and protect the structure.
An effective waterproofing system does more than cover a wet wall. Depending on the property, solutions may include exterior waterproofing membranes, drainage matting, footing drains, drain tile and sump systems designed to help move water away from the foundation and protect the structure.
Chemical-Free Foundation Waterproofing
Able Basement and Structural Solutions offers chemical-free foundation waterproofing options designed to help protect homes and buildings from moisture and water intrusion. Our waterproofing membrane creates a durable barrier along the foundation to help prevent water and vapor from entering the structure.
When appropriate for the property, the membrane can be installed below the slab and along exterior foundation walls as part of a complete waterproofing and drainage system. Each property is evaluated individually so we can recommend a solution based on the foundation drainage condition and source of moisture problems.
Premium Rubberized Foundation Waterproofer
Able Basement and Structural Solutions uses a premium liquid rubber foundation waterproofing to create a durable flexible barrier against water and moisture intrusion. The rubberized membrane is designed to remain flexible as foundation materials experience normal movement and changing conditions.
For exterior foundation waterproofing, the membrane is applied to the foundation wall to help prevent groundwater and moisture from penetrating the structure. Waterproofing is extended into critical areas and, when site conditions require it, may be continued along adjoining foundation walls to provide more complete protection.
Because every Central Ohio property has different soil, drainage and foundation conditions, we evaluate the source of the water before determining the appropriate waterproofing and drainage solution.
Advantages of Exterior Excavation and Waterproofing
Exterior excavation and waterproofing addresses water at the outside of the foundation, helping protect foundation walls before water enters the basement or lower level.
-
Reduces water intrusion through exterior foundation walls.
-
Helps relieve water and hydrostatic pressure around the foundation when combined with proper drainage.
-
Provides access to inspect the exterior foundation walls for cracks, deterioration or other concerns.
-
Allows damaged or clogged exterior drainage components to be evaluated and, when appropriate, repaired or replaced.
-
Provides an opportunity to address bowed or damaged block foundation walls when structural repairs are also needed.
-
Allows waterproofing membranes, drainage materials and foundation drainage systems to work together as a more complete water-management solution.
Able Basement and Structural Solutions evaluates each Central Ohio property individually to determine whether exterior excavation and waterproofing, an interior drainage system, or a combination of solutions is appropriate for the property.
