Foundation Repair

Foundation repair is a process that involves repairing cracks or other damage to your basement's foundation. This can be done using a variety of methods, including:

Crack injection
Foundation piers
Helical piers

The type of repair that is used will depend on the specific needs of your foundation. Foundation repair is a good option for basements that are experiencing water problems due to damage to the foundation.

Sump Pump Installation and Repair

A sump pump is a device that removes water from your basement. Sump pumps are typically installed in a sump basin, which is a hole in the floor of your basement. When the water level in the sump basin rises, the sump pump turns on and pumps the water out of the basement.

Sump pumps are a good option for basements that are prone to flooding. Sump pumps can also be used to prevent water from entering your basement through cracks in the foundation or walls.

French Drain Installation

A French drain is a trench that is filled with gravel or other porous material. French drains are installed around the perimeter of your basement to collect water and redirect it away from your home.

French drains are a good option for basements that are located in areas with high water tables. French drains can also be used to prevent water from entering your basement through cracks in the foundation or walls.
