Basement Waterproofing & Crawl Space Repair in Chesapeake City

Flooding, water seepage or even high humidity can quickly result in mold growth and water damage in your basement or crawl space. We prevent this from happening by installing an interior drainage system in the basement that is connected to a high volume sump pump. Any water that makes it to the basement is collected and pumped out of the home without you even noticing. 

Just like the basement, in the crawl space we similarly place a sump pump system and dehumidifier to prevent water issues. The entire area is encapsulated with vapor barrier to prevent mold growth. Our crawl space system comes with a 25-year warranty. 

We Provide:
  • Basement Waterproofing
  • Crawl Space Encapsulation
  • Exclusive, Patented Products
  • Humidity Control
  • Structural Repair
  • Basement Egress Windows
You Receive:
  • Permanently Dry Basement
  • Clean Protected Crawlspace
  • Protection against Mold
  • Improved Home Value

If the walls of the basement or bowing inwards we install wall anchors or braces to straighten the walls. If the floor above the crawl space is sagging we install SmartJack support jacks to raise the floor back to a level position. Our Chesapeake City waterproofing systems come with lifetime warranties. 

Basement Finishing & Remodeling in Chesapeake City, MD

Waterproofing your basement prevents outside water from coming in but what if a pipe bursts or the water heater leaks inside the home. A newly finished basement done by your average contractor will mold and rot if there is an internal leak. You'll have to tear out your new basement! We fix this issue.

Our Products Include :
  • Waterproof, washable, insulated walls           
  • Mold-Resistant, No-Sag suspended ceiling
  • Modular carpet, tile & faux wood flooring
  • Basement egress windows

  • Energy-efficient, double-paned basement windows
  • Attractive Sunhouse basement window wells
  • French, bifold, louvre & six-paneled steel doors

Unlike the average Chesapeake City contractor we use completely inorganic, waterproof materials. Even if the basement floods your walls and floors will not be damaged by the water. These waterproof products are patented and are built to create an attractive finished basement that lasts a lifetime.

Job Stories From Chesapeake City, MD
Foundation Repair and Basement Waterproofing in Chesapeake City, MD

In Chesapeake City, MD, a homeowner reached out to us with a concerning issue. His 90-year-old mother's home, which had previously undergone foundation crack repair by another company, was experiencing more unsettling problems—with some blocks appearing to have shifted. Understanding how critical a stable foundation is for any home, especially one with such a rich history, we were ready to roll up our sleeves and ensure that this cherished family abode was both secure and safe. After the homeowner contacted our customer care team, we dispatched a System Design Specialist to inspect the home meticulously. Upon assessment, it became apparent that the previous repair hadn't withstood the test of time. Our recommended solution involved the installation of our Carbon Armor and PowerBrace products—top-notch in stabilizing and reinforcing foundation walls at risk of buckling inward. As our production team, including a foreman and skilled installers, got to work, it was all hands on deck. The innovative Carbon Armor system, known for its unbelievable strength and flexibility, was deployed along the foundation cracks to halt further movement effectively. 

Crawl Space Waterproofing in Chesapeake City, MD

We recently had the opportunity to assist a homeowner in Chesapeake City, MD, who was dealing with an all-too-common issue in homes around the area—a leaky and inefficient crawlspace. This home had a unique setup: a two-part crawlspace, one side featuring a fully stand-up area with a concrete floor, the other not as tall and covered with nothing but a thin layer of plastic. The homeowner wanted to encapsulate the smaller area to protect their home and improve their living environment. Our System Design Specialist, equipped with the expertise to diagnose and recommend personalized solutions, identified the perfect approach for turning their damp, musty crawlspace into a clean, dry space once and for all. We chose to install our proven system that consisted of CleanSpace, SuperSump, and WaterGuard. The CleanSpace liner was meticulously cut and installed to completely seal off the crawlspace floor and walls from earth moisture and pests. Our SuperSump sump pump system was then placed to efficiently pump out any intruding water, ensuring that the area remains dry. Finally, WaterGuard was incorporated as an added defense, intercepting water that seeps through the walls and redirects it to the sump pump, away from the crawlspace. 

Basement Waterproofing in Chesapeake City, MD

This basement, which came equipped with a sump pump and French drain, seemed inadequately protected against water damage. The suspicion was that the discharge line was not optimally located, which can spell disaster for any basement by severely limiting the effectiveness of water management systems. Our seasoned System Design Specialist visited the home, meticulously inspecting the basement's condition and its existing water mitigation setup. It became clear that the homeowners were spot-on: the sump pump's discharge line was indeed in need of rerouting to ensure water was being diverted away from the house efficiently. With a plan in action, our specially trained production team got down to work, installing a high-efficiency TripleSafe Sump Pump alongside an exceptional WaterGuard interior drainage system.  sets

Hi, you replaced our sump pump a few years ago and now we'd like to have some repairs done in the crawl space area. I think we have a beam that needs some work and probably a few other things down there to make our floor feel a little more sturdy.

A previous home inspection on the house in under contract showed some possible basement / foundation issues that we would like to get checked out and get an estimation on what exactly the issues are and what the cost would be to fix them.

Leaking foundation. ServPro is there now taking care of mold issue. Insurance will not cover the repair. Do not go to the property without my permission.

My home has a crumbing 1898 dirt floor crawl space. There is previous termite and mold issues. I want to renovate the home but first need to address the crawl space problems and strengthen it to carry the weight of renovating. I believe by fixing the crawl space and not doing a full tear out I can avoid the new costly sump pump regulations in Maryland (?).
