Trustworthy Basement Finishing & Crawl Space Contractor in Cleveland, OH

A homeowner in Cleveland Heights, Ohio noticed water pooling in his basement after heavy rain. This proved to be a substantial issue, as the basement lacked a suitable drainage line and pump system to remove the water efficiently. He called The Basement Guys® for a service estimate, and our team recommended a few fixes.

To begin, we excavated a portion of the concrete floor of the basement to install WaterGuard® perimeter drains. A perimeter drainage system is installed around the perimeter of the basement and is designed to redirect water away from the foundation and into a drainage area. By placing the WaterGuard® line below ground and just above the foundation footing, our system prevents clogging or backups.

The next step in the process involved installation of a new sump pump. A sump pump system is installed in a pit, or sump, in the basement and is designed to pump water out of the home. We opted to install our SuperSump® cast iron sump pump system to ensure cost-effective and reliable water removal. We then finished by installing a new discharge line with IceGuard® weather protection.

Thanks to basement waterproofing service from The Basement Guys®, this home was ready for future water intrusion issues. Could your home use the same protection? Call us today and schedule your free estimate.

Homeowners in Cleveland, Ohio wanted a simple and effective way to prevent water from entering their home's crawl space. The home was particularly susceptible to water intrusion, as it sat at the base of a hilly neighborhood. After heavy rainfall, water would track down the hill and towards the foundation of the home, exerting tremendous hydrostatic pressure which could lead to leaks and floods if the foundation gave out.

After a thorough walkthrough of the space, The Basement Guys® suggested a few simple changes. First, we applied SilverGlo® foam insulation along the crawl space walls to completely seal any gaps that appeared in the foundation or along the rim joists. Then, we laid a CleanSpace® vapor barrier along the dirt floor to prevent water from seeping up through the soil. Similar to a pool liner, this heavy duty polyethylene sheeting is puncture and tear resistant, providing durable coverage for the space. Additionally, the antimicrobial UltraFresh treatment prevents mold growth in the crawl space, cultivating a safe, dry and healthy atmosphere.

Our crawl space waterproofing services rendered this house perfectly safe from water intrusion. To learn more about our crawl space repair products and services, call The Basement Guys® today and request a no-cost estimate.

For one new homeowner in Cleveland, Ohio, her new basement was full of opportunities. The wide open space made it ideal for everything from a guest bedroom to a fully equipped home theater. But before she could start evaluating her options for a remodel, it was important to address the lack of drainage. In an area like hers, with heavy year-round precipitation and a sloped, hilly neighborhood with plenty of room for water runoff, basement waterproofing was essential for her peace of mind. The homeowner decided to call The Basement Guys® to explore her waterproofing options and find the best solution for the home.

We began by installing WaterGuard® French drains along the perimeter of the basement. These drains rest underneath the floor and just above the foundation footing, perfectly placed to catch stray leaks through the walls and route them to a sump pump for removal. Our SuperSump® premier sump pump is ideal for this. Featuring a powerful Zoeller® 1/3 horsepower cast iron pump, this unit can keep your basement dry even during severe floods.

Finally, to prevent water intrusion through the walls and brighten the space for the pending remodel, we installed BrightWall® panels on the basement walls. This flexible and adaptive material fits over walls of virtually any shape and size, creating an antimicrobial vapor barrier that repels moisture.

With these measures in place, the basement was ready for remodeling with total waterproof security. To learn more, call The Basement Guys® and schedule a free basement waterproofing estimate for your home.

Homeowners in Cleveland, Ohio grew concerned after seeing some mold along the perimeter walls of their finished basement. The multi-use space boasted a finished den with carpeted flooring, a laundry room and a storage room. Since there was no drainage system in the basement, further water intrusion threatened to damage all of these areas, while additional mold development created an unhealthy atmosphere for their asthmatic daughter to play in. To take care of this problem and safeguard against future ones, they called The Basement Guys®.

Our team of waterproofing experts recommended several changes. First, we tore up a small strip of carpet along the base of the perimeter walls and excavated some of the concrete flooring below to create space for an underground drainage line. WaterGuard® French drains rest underneath the foundation to collect water from the walls and divert it to a sump pump for removal. In addition to leaving no impact on the usable space in the basement, this placement resists clogging from mud and debris. Then, we installed a powerful SuperSump® sump pump and hooked it up to the drainpipes to ensure speedy and reliable water discharge.

With proper drainage in place, this Cleveland home was safe from leaks and floods. Does your home have adequate protection from water intrusion? Call The Basement Guys® and schedule a free in-home estimate to find out.

One homeowner in Gates Mills, Ohio discovered signs of cold, wet air infiltrating his crawl space. On bitter winter days, his floors would feel cold to the touch, and there was visible damp underground. A poorly insulated home can lead to a variety of problems, especially when it comes to heating your home and avoiding excess energy costs. To take care of this issue before the cold season really set in, he called The Basement Guys®.

To dry out the crawl space, we installed a portable SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. This handy unit rests comfortably in tight spaces and regulates moisture levels in the air while also filtering out contaminants like dust and pollen.

Then, we installed SilverGlo™ rigid foam insulation along the walls of the crawl space to maintain the dry, airtight atmosphere we were creating. This innovative material resists water damage far better than traditional fiberglass insulation, providing lasting support for the crawl space. Once that was in place, we created a perfect seal against the rim joists and other gaps in the crawl space using foam insulation.

These simple measures resulted in a well-insulated home prepared for the worst of winter weather. Looking to save on your energy bill this season? Call The Basement Guys® today for a free in-home crawl space insulation estimate.

Homeowner Gabriel M. of Richmond, Ohio wanted to safeguard his new home from water intrusion via leaks or flooding. Ideally, the waterproofing solution for his space would be of the set-and-forget variety, providing peace of mind with minimal upkeep required. Additionally, he was hoping to have backups installed to ensure that the basement would stay dry even if his primary system failed or power was cut to the home. With all of that in mind, The Basement Guys® had the perfect suggestion for his needs.

The TripleSafe™ sump pump system features three separate sump pumps to provide the ultimate in basement waterproofing. The main cast iron Zoeller® 1/3 horsepower pump offers low-power routine performance. Meanwhile, a heavy duty backup pump is designed to kick in during severe floods. Lastly, the included UltraSump® battery-powered backup pump will take over in the event of total electrical outage.

We connected the TripleSump® system to a discharge line featuring an IceGuard® adapter to ensure year-round reliability. That way, even if the pipes below should freeze, water will continue to be pumped out of the basement as needed.

Gabriel's home was thoroughly waterproofed with the help of the deluxe TripleSafe™ system. To learn more about this powerful all-in-one sump pump solution, call The Basement Guys® today for a free estimate.

For years, one Cleveland, Ohio homeowner used her basement as a storage space. As items accumulated down there, it was easy for her to miss telltale signs of water intrusion. Along some cracks in the foundation and at gaps and seams by the windows, external pressure had begun to force water through and into the home. As this water pooled inside, it discolored walls and damaged some of the items in the storage space. By the time the homeowner noticed, this issue had become quite severe, and she enlisted The Basement Guys® for help in treating it.

Once the space was cleared out, we began by excavating a segment of the concrete slab floor to install perimeter drains underground. The WaterGuard® basement drainage system collects water quickly and discreetly and routes it to a sump pump system for removal. To maximize the efficiency of this process, we also installed our SuperSump® sump pump system. This powerful pump boasts a Zoeller® 1/3 horsepower system, capable of pumping over 2,000 gallons of water per hour out of the home.

With her new comprehensive waterproofing protection in place, the homeowner enjoyed renewed peace of mind in her basement. Could you use the same level of security in your space? Call The Basement Guys® today and schedule a no-cost waterproofing estimate.

For one Cleveland, Ohio homeowner, a recent bout of extreme cold weather posed a serious problem. The pipes had burst, causing severe water damage in the home. To make matters worse, there was no water removal system in place. To safeguard against future problems like this, he called The Basement Guys®.

Our installation team recommended a comprehensive sump pump system with multiple backups in the event of future failure. We installed a TripleSafe™ sump pump with three levels of advanced protection. Featuring a two-pump system designed to kick in during heavy water intrusion or pump failure and a third battery-powered pump for use during outages, the TripleSafe™ system offers advanced peace of mind for your home.

Then, we installed a new discharge system outside the home with IceGuard® protection. This handy adapter ensures that your pump system will still cycle water out of your home even if the underground drainage has frozen over.

This basement waterproofing overhaul was installed quickly and efficiently, with minimal disruption to the home. For more information on our waterproofing products and services, call The Basement Guys® today and arrange for a free service estimate.

Richard B., a homeowner in Cleveland Heights, Ohio was looking to convert his basement from a storage space to a fully finished game room. The first order of business was to upgrade the home's waterproofing and drainage systems. Over the years, minor leaks had occurred here and there, and the accumulated water intrusion led to some noticeable damage along the foundation walls. To prevent issues like this from affecting his new remodeling plans, Richard called The Basement Guys®.

Our team set to work, excavating a portion of floor along the perimeter walls to install WaterGuard® drains. These underground French drainpipes collect water that seeps through foundation walls and funnels it out to a sump pump system for easy removal. By resting below the floor and away from areas where mud and debris builds up, WaterGuard® drains provide reliable clog-free operation year-round.

Once the drains were in place, we installed a SuperSump® sump pump system and connected it to the drainage pipes. This powerful sump pump system is capable of cycling thousands of gallons of water per hour out of the basement, ensuring a safe and dry space even during severe flooding events. As a finishing touch, we applied IceGuard® discharge line protection to the downspout for added peace of mind.

This easy and effective basement waterproofing upgrade allowed Richard to begin his basement remodel with confidence. Curious about shoring up your own home's waterproofing defenses? Call The Basement Guys® today for a no-cost waterproofing estimate.

Gina D., a homeowner in Cleveland, Ohio, felt that the drainage system in her basement wouldn't cut it for another wet winter season. To upgrade her home's defenses, she turned to The Basement Guys®. After a thorough evaluation of the space, we offered a few simple basement waterproofing solutions.

First, we needed to add new drainpipes outside the home to funnel water out of the basement and away from the foundation. As water is drained out, it can erode the soil near the foundation and contribute to future problems like settlement and sinking. By installing new pipes outside to divert the water away, we helped prevent this structural weakening.

In addition to the basement, Gina was concerned about the waterproofing capabilities of her roof and gutter system. Whether through blockage or simply heavy water accumulation, too few or too weak gutters and downspouts can damage the home. We installed a few new downspouts along the gutters to provide smooth, reliable water removal.

Thanks to The Basement Guys®, Gina's home was ready for the worst of winter weather for years to come. Looking to secure your home from leaks and floods? Call us today for a no-cost, no-obligation basement waterproofing estimate.

After years of exposure to the elements, the fiberglass insulation in one Mayfield Village, Ohio home was beginning to fail. Traditional fiberglass insulation, though it was the standard for many years, is susceptible to weakening after prolonged exposure to water. As it loses its R-value, it is less effective at retaining warm air in the home. As another chilly winter approached, the homeowners reached out to The Basement Guys® for help.

After a thorough evaluation of the space, we recommended our SilverGlo™ foam insulation system. To prep the crawl space, we started by sealing gaps found around the foundation perimeter at the rim joists. This prevents frigid air from entering the home.

Then, we applied the SilverGlo™ foam along the crawl space walls. Compared to fiberglass, this product absorbs virtually no moisture and experiences no drop in R-value after exposure to water. This creates an air- and watertight seal capable of retaining heat much better than traditional fiberglass insulation.

The SilverGlo™ system offers advanced protection from common insulation problems. To upgrade your home's defenses this winter, call The Basement Guys® for a zero obligation free service estimate.

A homeowner in Parma Heights, Ohio noticed that his home had begun to settle. This is a common problem, especially as homes age, and he wanted to take care of it now rather than wait and let the condition deteriorate further. After placing a proactive call to The Basement Guys® for a free consultation, we worked with him to devise a foundation support solution that would raise the home quickly and safely.

Given the tough soil conditions common in late fall, we opted to use helical foundation piers. The addition of sturdy steel helical plates made it easier to dig through rough terrain for a smooth installation, and when it came time to raise the foundation, these plates also provided extra support for weight distribution.

Once the piers were in place, a powerful hydraulic lift system was connected to each one so they could push the foundation up evenly in unison. This method ensures a level lift and prevents unnecessary stress which can damage the foundation. Ultimately, we were able to raise and level the foundation with no major issues.

Foundation piers are the perfect solution for lifting settled foundations. To learn more about this system and arrange for repairs of your own, call The Basement Guys® and set up a free in-home estimate.

A young couple in Garfield Heights, Ohio had just purchased their first home when they noticed a potentially serious problem: the waterproofing and drainage in their new basement was anything but new, and signs of water damage were already present. The existing drainage had clogged and stalled years ago, allowing water to accumulate below the floor and create cracks in the basement. Looking to upgrade this system before things got worse, the homeowners called The Basement Guys®.

After visiting the property, our team recommended a new below ground drainage line. We excavated a portion of floor along the perimeter of the foundation and installed WaterGuard® drainpipes. These pipes sit below the floor, collecting water that leaks through the walls and depositing it in a sump pump system for removal.

After securing the new drainage line, we connected it to a brand new SuperSump® pump system. These top-of-the-line sump pumps can remove upwards of 2,000 gallons of water per hour from afflicted basements. Then, to ensure reliable year-round use, we added an IceGuard® discharge line protector.

These Garfield Heights homeowners can rest easily knowing that their basement has been securely waterproofed. If your home could use the same treatment, call The Basement Guys® today and schedule a free estimate appointment.

One Cleveland, Ohio homeowner grew concerned after noticing saggy spots on his kitchen floor. After checking the support joists below and discovering that the support beams were starting to fail, he called The Basement Guys® to handle the next steps.

Floor joists are horizontal beams placed across the ceiling of a basement or crawl space to frame the open space and provide support to the floors above. Usually, metal or concrete support beams are installed to brace against these joists, but over time these can settle, shift or rot.

Once we conducted a walkthrough, our team recommended replacing the metal beams that were in place with a new set of reinforced SmartJack® supports. This two-piece system consists of an adjustable jack at the head and a heavy galvanized steel support beam below to provide a stable brace. After installing the SmartJack® system, we adjusted the jacks to slowly and steadily raise the floor joists back to their proper positions.

If you'd like to see if the SmartJack® system can reinforce your foundation and level your floors, call The Basement Guys® today and schedule a free estimate.

Homeowners in Middleburg Heights, Ohio found several small cracks forming in the foundation walls of their basement. This is a common occurrence, as extreme pressure from outside soil and water can cause these walls to bend, bow or buckle. While a small crack may not seem like a big deal, over time, these can expand and lead to structural weakness in the walls. Leaks, floods and even total wall failure may happen if the walls have no support in resisting this pressure. With that in mind, the homeowners called The Basement Guys®.

Our team braced the afflicted portion of the foundation wall with powerful CarbonArmor® carbon fiber support straps. These thin, lightweight yet durable strips are attached to the wall with a powerful epoxy resin to ensure solid support. Carbon fiber is as many as ten times stronger in tension than steel, which means the walls will stand up to even extreme pressure.

CarbonArmor® installation is fast and easy, as it requires no exterior excavation and the low-profile design doesn't impact future basement finishing projects. If you'd like to know more about foundation repair using the CarbonArmor® system, call The Basement Guys® today and schedule a free estimate.

Homeowners in Parma, Ohio were interested in converting their basement into a multi-use space, including a spare bedroom, office and storage room. Before work could begin on this extensive finishing project, they wanted to shore up the waterproofing capabilities of the basement, so they called The Basement Guys®. After conducting our free consultation, we recommended our CleanSpace® wall system.

This durable, washable plastic vapor barrier is attached to the basement walls with drilled fasteners, ensuring a snug and secure fit. Once attached, CleanSpace® sheeting provides total waterproof protection from cracks, moisture buildup and other common causes of water intrusion. Additionally, the anti-microbial UltraFresh protection provides another layer of security from mold and mildew buildup.

The crisp white finish of CleanSpace® walls make for a clean look in your basement, amplifying the power of your existing lighting to create a bright and brilliant space.

Homeowners in Cleveland, Ohio were dismayed to discover that their finished basement had flooded. While they managed to take care of the worst of the water damage themselves, they needed help from The Basement Guys® to make sure it never happened again. After a walkthrough, our team recommended a new underground drainage system and a powerful sump pump system to ensure quick, reliable water removal.

Installation of the WaterGuard® French drain system was fast and easy. Our crew dug a small trench around the perimeter walls of the basement and set up the pipeline just above the foundation footing. By setting the drainage system underneath the floor, the WaterGuard® system provides efficient drainage without disrupting the layout of the basement. Once the system was in place, we restored the concrete above the drain.

After installing new drains, the basement needed a powerful pump system for fast and efficient water removal. We hooked the WaterGuard® pipeline up to a new SuperSump® sump pump system. Capable of pumping over 2,000 gallons of water per hour out of your basement, this sump pump keeps basements dry even during heavy water intrusion incidents.

A homeowner in Brooklyn, Ohio began to notice some issues with the moisture level in his basement. Although the walls had not begun to noticeably crack or bow, there were signs of mold growth and a dank, musty atmosphere that made the area unpleasant. He called The Basement Guys® for a second opinion.

After a thorough inspection, our team recommended a few simple fixes to improve the watertight seal in his basement. First, we dug out space below the perimeter walls to install WeatherGuard® drainpipes. These French drains rest atop the foundation footing, safely out of the "mud zone," where clogs are common. 

Once the new drainage system was in place, we hooked it up to a SuperSump® sump pump system for easy water removal. These state-of-the-art cast iron pump systems include powerful Zoeller® pumps capable of removing up to 2,220 gallons of water out of your basement per hour.
