Solve basement water issues in your Greensboro, NC home with help from '58 Foundations & Waterproofing. Our contractors identify problem areas, install effective waterproofing systems, and help you maintain a dry, healthy space beneath your home.
If your basement is damp, musty, or leaking during heavy rain, you’re not alone. Many homes across Greensboro deal with water intrusion due to a mix of older construction practices, clay-heavy soils, and unpredictable weather patterns. At ’58 Foundations & Waterproofing, we provide tailored basement waterproofing solutions designed to keep your home dry and protected, backed by our trusted Life-of-the-Structure Warranty and more than 65 years of experience serving North Carolina homeowners.
Greensboro’s soil and weather patterns create challenging conditions for basements. Many homes here are built on expansive clay soils that swell when saturated with rain, then shrink during dry periods. This constant movement places stress on foundations, creating cracks and pathways for water to seep through. Heavy rainfall can quickly overwhelm poor exterior drainage, while rising groundwater levels can contribute to basement flooding. In neighborhoods with older homes, such as Fisher Park, Lindley Park, and College Hill, aging foundations and outdated waterproofing systems make water intrusion even more likely.
Our team understands these local factors because we see them every day. We begin every project with a detailed inspection to identify the true source of your basement water problems and design a solution that will protect your home in the long term.
Basement water problems don’t always start with dramatic flooding. Often, small signs appear first, and addressing them early can save you from more costly repairs down the road. Many homeowners first notice water stains or discoloration on basement walls or floors, a sign that seepage is occurring behind the scenes. Musty or damp odors, especially after rain, often indicate elevated humidity and the potential for mold growth. Efflorescence—white, chalky deposits on concrete walls—is another clue that water is moving through the foundation. You may also see peeling paint, bubbling drywall, or warped flooring, which can result from moisture trapped behind finished surfaces. In more advanced cases, puddles or standing water may appear after storms. If you’ve noticed any of these symptoms in your basement, it’s time to schedule a professional inspection.
A clear indicator that you have water seepage is stains on your floor.
