Protect your home with professional waterproofing & structural repair services in Valley City

A homeowner in Valley City desperately needed a solution for their dirty, musty and wet crawl space. The water damage and high humidity levels was rotting the wooden support beams, but also creating poor air quality in the home. They researched around and found that Cleveland Basement Systems was a reputable, local company that could provide a free inspection. 

The inspector arrived and immediately crawled inside of the space. He noticed mold, mildew and wood rot on the beams. Since this crawl space had a dirt floor, it left this area more susceptible to high humidity levels because of the earth's surface. He advised that we install the CleanSpace encapsulation system in order to keep water and outside air out. CleanSpace is a 20mil thick liner that is attached to the floors and walls of the crawl space to act as a powerful vapor barrier. CleanSpace is completely waterproof as well as tear resistant, so it's a great, permanent solution to this wet crawl space. 

The homeowner was left with a detailed, written quote and lots of viable options to fix their crawl space.

A homeowner located in Valley City had lived in their split level home for about five years and noticed the garage wall was bowing inward. Additionally, water was prevalent in the garage every time it would rain, so he knew the wall movement was most likely because of excessive water intrusion. The customer researched around for a reputable, reliable and professional company that could stabilize and waterproof the garage. He found that Cleveland Basement Systems fit this description and offered free in-home inspections! 

The inspector arrived to the estimate and began assessing the wall damage. He noticed that the garage wall was sheared approximately one and half inches. This is significant movement and needed permanently fixed. Water was freeley getting into the garage as well, causing damage to the home. The inspector sat with the homeowner and advised that we install the GeoLock system as well as WaterGuard and a TripleSafe. To stabilize the wall, GeoLock would utilize plates buried in the soil outside that would have up to 480 square inches of bearing surface in order to straighten the walls. The TripleSafe and WaterGuard would effectively waterproof the area by direct and ejecting water away from the home. The TripleSafe sump pump is equipped with three separate pumps to handle thousands of gallons of water per hour and even work when a power outage occurs. The WaterGuard drainage channel is laid on the perimeter floor and catches water from both the floor and the walls to drain into the sump pump. The homeowner was given a written, detailed quote and was left with the best options to stabilize and waterproof his garage.
