Laurel's Basement Waterproofing Contractor

Basement Systems USA is the local, family owned contractor in Laurel 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 Laurel

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 Laurel waterproofing systems come with lifetime warranties. 

Basement Finishing & Remodeling in Laurel, 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 Laurel 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 Laurel, MD
Foundation Wall Crack Repair in Laurel, MD

When a Laurel, MD homeowner noticed increasingly alarming foundation cracks, they knew it was time for professional intervention. The cracking was caused by hydrostatic pressure, a common but troubling issue. Following a structural survey, the recommendation pointed towards the installation of carbon fiber straps to ensure the integrity of their home's foundation. That’s where our team at Basement Systems came in. The homeowner reached out, and our dedicated Customer Care team promptly scheduled a thorough inspection, understanding the urgency and stress such issues can bring to homeowners. A System Design Specialist visited, assessed the problem with meticulous attention to detail, and confirmed that the best course of action was indeed the installation of our Carbon Armor product - an innovative, strong, and reliable solution we recommend for foundation stabilization against similar pressure-related concerns. Our installation process then took center stage. Our production team, led by an experienced foreman and comprised of skilled installers, arrived at the home ready to tackle the job. With careful precision, they applied the Carbon Armor straps across the designated areas of the basement walls. This involved cleaning the surfaces, applying a strong epoxy, and securing the straps evenly to distribute the structural loads and counteract the forces causing the cracks. Upon completion, not only was the installation neat and minimally intrusive, but pivotal in arresting the progress of foundation damage. The homeowner was relieved and pleased with the outcome - their home's foundation was now reinforced with a durable solution that blends seamlessly, underpinning the structure without adding bulk or visible disturbance. 

Basement Waterproofing in Laurel, MD

When a homeowner in Laurel, MD, reached out to us after discovering a pipe leak that led to a bigger issue involving asbestos, we knew we had to offer a solution that was not only effective but also safe and reliable. The discovery of asbestos floor and ceiling tiles meant that the basement had to be gutted entirely—a daunting situation for any homeowner. Beyond just removing the water, we had the responsibility to ensure that the basement was not only dry but also safe and prepared for a fresh start post-renovation. Upon contacting us, our Customer Care team quickly set up an appointment, and our System Design Specialist was at the homeowner’s door to provide a comprehensive evaluation. We understand how overwhelming water problems can be, and our approach was as much about providing peace of mind as it was about fixing the issue. Our recommendation? Installing our WaterGuard drainage system and SuperSump sump pump. The WaterGuard system is designed to catch any water entering the basement and direct it to the SuperSump pump, which then efficiently pumps the water out of the home.
