Highland's Basement Waterproofing Contractor

Basement Systems USA is the local, family owned contractor in Highland for waterproofing, finishing, and crawl space repair. With over 75 years combined experience and a full-time, professional staff we are ready to serve you and improve your home. 

Basement Waterproofing & Crawl Space Repair in Highland

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 Highland waterproofing systems come with lifetime warranties. 

Basement Finishing & Remodeling in Highland, 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 Highland 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 Highland, MD
Carbon Armor Wall Straps in Highland, MD

This Highland homeowner was facing the uneasy reality of a cracked and bowing foundation wall. This isn't just a cosmetic issue; it poses a real threat to the structural integrity of any home. Our System Design Specialist, armed with a wealth of experience and a keen eye for detail, inspected the home. The solution they proposed was imminently robust – Carbon Armor. Carbon Armor is no ordinary fix; it’s a state-of-the-art framing reinforcement method that harnesses the power of carbon fiber. 

Basement Waterproofing in Highland, MD

Recently, we had the opportunity to work with a homeowner in Highland, MD, who was facing issues with a wet basement, making them start to worry about potential damage to their home’s structure and indoor air quality. Our System Design Specialist identified that the cause of their wet basement was due to ineffective drainage and an outdated sump pump unable to handle heavy rains. Our recommended solution was the installation of our WaterGuard interior drainage system and the SuperSump sump pump system. These products are at the forefront of basement waterproofing technology, designed to channel water out efficiently and keep the basement dry. The installation day saw our experienced team transforming their damp basement into a dry, usable space. The WaterGuard system was installed at the basement's perimeter, hidden neatly beneath the surface to redirect moisture without disrupting the aesthetic of the room. The SuperSump replaced the old, ineffective pump, providing a reliable, high-capacity solution fit to tackle demanding downpours. 

Damp Crawl Space in Highland, MD

When we were called out to a home from the 1930s in Highland, MD, we knew it was going to be a unique challenge. The homeowner was encountering issues with their crawl space - it was an old, tight space with a dirt floor that was not only difficult to access but also showing signs of mold. Our System Design Specialist arrived on-site, armed with expertise to tackle the problem head-on. After careful inspection, the specialist diagnosed the problem and presented a tailored solution aimed at not only addressing the current issue but safeguarding the home for the future. Our recommended warrior in this battle against damp and mold was CleanSpace, a cutting-edge encapsulation product designed to seal crawl spaces and the ground from moisture, critters, and mold growth.
