AdvantaClean of York County and South Charlotte Does Basement Waterproofing

Dealing with a damp, musty basement is a headache no one wants to handle. Between leaky walls and water seeping through the floors, it is easy to feel overwhelmed when researching basement waterproofing. However, finding a practical solution can save you time and money in the long run. After all, a basement that smells bad and is prone to mold problems shouldn't be used as storage or living space. There are many reasons for basement water seepage, leaks, flooding, and moisture. Some are easy to fix, but others require the help of a professional specializing in basement waterproofing.

With an effective basement waterproofing solution for your Rock Hill home, you can prevent mildewing and mold, structural deterioration, and air quality problems associated with water in the basement. AdvantaClean is here to help you every step of the way. It is important to note that waterproofing and sealing services are not universal, meaning that careful consideration must occur regarding the state of the property, the severity of the water infiltration, and the long-term solution to stopping leaking and intrusion.

Here is a list of the most popular interior and exterior waterproofing methods to help you choose the best one for your home. When you know what your house needs, you can trust our team to perform the needed actions to help.

Basement Waterproofing Options

  •  Epoxy and Sealant Material Injections

Some people swear by sealants and epoxy injections, but others say they are temporary fixes. This choice might be an early remedy for the situation until you have the time and means to afford a more permanent fix. Our AdvantaClean professionals use a combination of flexible sealant, porous spray foam, and an impermeable membrane to prevent leaks without cracking, as you can see with many DIY attempts. Of course, sealant materials are not an adequate replacement for a drainage system. This option is the best way to protect your basement from flooding. Our responding professionals can use these products to stop water intrusion while we plan permanent solutions to help.

  •  Installing Permanent Interior Drainage Implements

While exterior excavation can be effective, it can also be costly and disruptive. That's why many homeowners opt for an interior drainage system. This approach involves creating a trench along the interior perimeter of the concrete floor and installing a drain and sump pump. The drain captures any water that leaks through the walls or where the walls and floor meet, and the sump pump pumps it out of the basement. It is far more cost-effective than excavating the footer or regrading your property around the house.

  • Excavation and Exterior Drainage Solutions

Using polymers and membranes to coat the exterior of the walls can be effective, as can installing a trench drain underground. Our AdvantaClean experts recommend combining both methods for the best results. Excavation might be time-consuming, but it is the most direct path to resolving the issue with foundation vulnerabilities that expose your Rock Hill basement to water penetration.

When it comes to fixing basement water problems, it is crucial to consider the severity of the issue. While some may opt for a temporary solution, installing a drainage system is often necessary for a more effective fix. It's worth noting that exterior waterproofing is typically more expensive than interior waterproofing due to the need for heavy equipment and additional labor, which can also make the job take longer to complete.
