What Causes Damp Basements?

There are many reasons that you might notice a damp basement. Some common causes of water in your basement include:

  • Roof runoff
  • Cracks or damage to the foundation
  • Poor drainage around your home
  • A high water table
  • Improper grading
  • Leaking pipes or water heater

We’ll get to the root of your problem to reduce the water in your basement. However, leaking basements are common in this area, even in homes with solid foundations and proper drainage. In that case, basement waterproofing is your best line of defense.

How We Keep Water Out of Your Basement

Knoxville, TN, presents unique challenges when waterproofing your home. Flooding is common in Eastern Tennessee due to high rainfall and the abundance of rivers. However, our systems can prevent this water from entering your home and remove it if you experience flooding.

French Drains

Our French drain systems are designed to direct water away from your home and into a sump pump. We install these drains along to interior perimeter of your basement for minimal disruption to your property.

Sump Pump Installation

Our Workhorse sump pump systems were designed to handle heavy use and can remove up to 5,100 gallons of water per hour. In addition to our Workhorse system, we also offer our innovative Workhorse OT Plus, which provides a backup battery for use during power outages.

Vapor Barrier Installation

A membrane vapor barrier works with your French drains and sump pump to direct water into the drains and improve moisture removal. They are an excellent choice for homes with damp basements.

Foundation Repair

Cracks in your foundation can contribute to a damp or leaking basement. In that case, we can work with you to fix those cracks and reduce the amount of water entering your space.
