We are a Woman Owned Small Family Business. We have over 40 years of experience in residential foundation repair. We work with the outer foundation walls, basement walls & slabs, concrete slabs, patios, porches and driveways. Financing Available. Located at 137 County Rd 902, Calera, AL 35040. Mailing address: P.O. Box 1050, Calera, AL 35040 Areas served: We serve the entire state of Alabama including Birmingham, Tuscaloosa, Montgomery, Selma, Dothan, Auburn, Huntsville

"This was a very extensive project that I spent months researching, hired an engineer for his professional guidance, and accepted bids from four companies. Two of the other companies were cheaper but proposed to use synthetic foam materials, which don't have a long enough track record for my comfort. Once the job started, the crews worked with great diligence, and despite the numerous difficulties they encountered, I never heard a single complaint. Total work time was 14 days over a three-week period that include Independence Day. Total cost was about $40k"

Basement Leak Repair questions, answered by experts

External pressure on the basement wall can cause it to bow inward. Soil, heavy with water saturation, is commonly the main culprit. The soil exerts immense pressure on the wall, causing it to fail, at least partially. This is known as hydrostatic pressure—these situations can occur after rainfall or simply due to regular groundwater presence and may be temporary or more permanent.  

Permits may be required for major repairs, structural work, or electrical and plumbing restoration after a flood. Check with your local building department to determine permit requirements and associated fees for your flooded basement cleanup project. Obtaining the correct permits helps ensure work is done safely and up to code.

The least expensive basement waterproofing methods include grading soil away from your home, installing downspout extenders on your gutter system, and applying a waterproof paint on the interior of the foundation walls. Installing a French drain is a relatively inexpensive method if you do the work yourself, although it’s labor-intensive and can be challenging to install properly.

While both a channel drain and a French drain serve a similar purpose, a French drain is designed to prevent groundwater from causing flooding issues. This type of drain system goes underneath the soil and is completely surrounded by soil and rock. A channel drain, also called a trench drain, removes surface water before it ever enters the ground—hence the concrete and above-ground installation method.

The best basement waterproofing method depends on the issue you’re trying to solve. For example, if you have standing water on your basement floor, a floor drain or sump pump might be your best solution. Or, if you have standing water around your foundation, installing a drainage system that protects your basement and foundation might be better.
