Swarthmore's Basement Experts

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

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
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 Swarthmore waterproofing systems come with life-time warranties.

Job Stories From Swarthmore, PA
Leaky Wall Crack Repair in Swarthmore, PA

A homeowner in Swarthmore, PA was troubled by water sneaking its way in where the basement walls met the floor each time it rained. With a partially finished basement, the ongoing issue was mainly in the unfinished utility area, causing worry and damage that couldn’t be ignored. Understanding that water problems, if left unattended, could escalate quickly, the homeowner reached out to us at Basement Systems for a solution. Our process kicked off with a friendly call to our Customer Care team, who swiftly scheduled a home inspection to get to the root of the issue. Our System Design Specialist soon visited the home, conducting a thorough inspection that pinpointed the exact trouble spots where water was making its unwanted entrance. Our recommended solution? The installation of FlexiSpan—a trusted system in our arsenal of waterproofing products designed to seal basement cracks and prevent any future leaks. Our production team, comprising a seasoned foreman and skilled installers, took charge of the job confidently. The FlexiSpan system was carefully and efficiently installed, sealing off the path water had taken in the basement. Not only did we address the immediate problem at hand, but we also ensured that the homeowner wouldn’t have to worry about similar issues down the line.

Basement Waterproofing and Window Well Installation in Swarthmore, PA

At Basement Systems USA, we recently had the opportunity to transform a homeowner's space in Swarthmore, PA from a damp basement to a dry basement. The homeowner reached out to us with a vision of an open concept basement. Though they already had a sump pump, their partially finished basement was still struggling with dampness, defeating their efforts to revamp the space. After contacting our customer care team, we scheduled a home inspection where our System Design Specialist was able to pinpoint the root cause of their dampness problem. We recommended installing our WaterGuard drainage system alongside the TripleSafe Sump Pump to ensure a comprehensive solution tailor-made to their needs. Our WaterGuard system is designed to intercept water at the perimeter of the basement, channeling it efficiently to the TripleSafe Sump Pump. The unique TripleSafe Sump Pump features not just one, but three pumps to offer optimal protection against water - including a backup system for those unexpected power outages.
