Sleep well knowing your basement is protected from costly flooding and water damage. By investing in a dry basement, you’ll not only improve the value of your home, you’ll also save yourself from major headaches down the road.
It’s a fact. Most basements begin to see water intrusion around 10 years after construction due to the French drains failing around the home’s foundation. We provide a permanent fix that we guarantee for life. With this important home investment, you can save yourself from future damage, increase your home’s value, and have peace of mind.
Water entering and remaining in your basement after rains is a sign of serious trouble. If you've found standing water in any part of your basement, we recommend scheduling an onsite analysis immediately.
Wet or moldy carpet is one of the more obvious signs of basement water intrusion. The problem will not get better on its own. Don't wait until leaking basement walls damage you home further, get it fixed today with GCF.
Seasonal changes in the soil around your outer foundational walls can heave and crack block walls. Heaving can be severe enough to require structural steel wall supports.
The first sign of standing water and moisture is typically a pungent and musty odor in the home. This odor is caused by a combination of mildews, bacterias, and molds that can negatively affect your health.
While this is the absolute worst-case scenario, any basement that has not been waterproofed is susceptible to total flooding during thunderstorms, hard rains, and hurricanes.
While we find mold hidden behind walls and in subflooring in many basement waterproofing projects, any homeowner that can see visible mold on their basement walls or ceilings should immediately contact us.
Our team begins by busting and removing approximately 6 inches of floor concrete along every perimeter wall that is being waterproofed. This is to prepare space for the water diversion track system and will be repoured and refinished before completion.
The GCF Hydro-Track Basement System collects water and moisture that enters the controlled water path and channels it (under the finished slab) to a suitable drainage location or catch basin utilizing a mechanical sump pump.
In most situations, a small catch basin and sump pump will be installed to be a collecting site for water from all the walls and tracks and be pumped clear of the home and foundation by a commercial-grade pump.
We have been cleaning areas for over ten years, successful in various projects.
