Basement Repair

• Basement Waterproofing in Kansas City Missouri

Leaking basement? Cracks, flooding, leaking walls or floors? Window wells flooding, or water flowing over the top of the wall. These are some of the many symptoms that can occur during the process of basement waterproofing.

Because of this fact, we typically take a 3-pronged approach to basement waterproofing after we have diagnosed the exact systems your home is experiencing.

• Sump Pump Installations in Kansas City Missouri

A sump pump is a small pump in a plastic pit located in the basement or crawlspace. This is installed to prevent flooding and reduce the overall water under the basement floor or in the crawlspace. Water flows into the sump pit through interior or exterior drain tiles (drain pipes) or if you are in a flood zone or high water table, it can percolate through the soil. Once this pit collects water it should be pumped up and out at least 10 feet away from the foundation pumping downhill.

Many older homes do not have sump pumps, some times this is okay if the house hasn’t had flooding issues. If you are unsure if the home has had flooding or moisture issues, it is a good idea to have a sump pump installed as a preventative measure. However, sump pumps are not a guaranteed method of eliminating flooding or groundwater, unless accompanied by an interior or exterior waterproofing system.

­However, legislation, including amendments to the U.S. Federal Clean Water Act in 1987, has made sump pumps a requirement in homes that aren’t necessarily at high risk for flooding. Today, 1-2 pumps are common and part of building codes in all new construction homes.
