"Jonathan and Taylor showed up as scheduled and were quickly at work fixing the foundation issues at hand. Polite and knowledgeable, they answered every question we had about the process. The job took two full days and they both worked late into the day to make sure the job was complete. Upon completion of the job, they texted pictures of their work to my phone so I could see what was done. They even went above the call, and took a picture of a small leak from my AC unit that I would not have known about! I definitely would recommend Alpha Foundations to anyone having issues with their home foundation!"

We are committed to excellence in every aspect of our business. We uphold a standard of integrity bound by fairness, honesty, and personal responsibility. Our distinction is the quality of service we bring to our customers. Accurate knowledge of our trade combined with ability is what makes us true professionals. Above all, we are watchful of our customers' interests, and make their concerns the basis of our business.

"As someone who is extremely thorough when vetting companies, I can say with complete confidence that all the heavy lifting I did upfront—interviewing more than five different foundation companies—truly paid off. I’m so glad I followed my gut and hired them! I cannot say enough great things about Eric and his team. They are fair, honest, and deeply committed to ethics. Our home turned out to be a challenging project with plenty of unexpected obstacles, but the crew never once complained. They even had to fend off hornets! Adlai and his team—Kalen and Wesley—took exceptional care of us and eased every concern I had. Not only were they able to stop further movement, but they also managed to get our brick back to its original placement. Their pricing is very fair, and they never try to upsell unnecessary additions (like a new lintel or extra piers) the way some other companies I spoke with did. The military discount was an added bonus and genuinely appreciated. Thank you! "

We are drillers and install a pipe in the earth around a home to reduce water pressure in the soils to dry out leaky basements. Excessive water pressure in soils around basements is caused due to a deeper soil layer that is restricting the downward movement and ultimately causes saturation. Once the soils are full, water pressure forces migration of water into basements. The drilling function reduces saturation and allows water to move down into lower soils for storage and into unsaturated soils not previously accessible. These layers restrict percolation and create high water pressure on basements. We have many jobs around the country and previously approved by the GEPD. Call for an appointment or just a consultation about the possibility to provide a solution to your problematic basement, yard flooding, soggy soils, or flooding.

Basement Leak Repair questions, answered by experts

In some cases, operating a snake can damage your drain and pipes. This depends on the overall condition of your pipes and how gently you operate the auger. For instance, older galvanized pipes covered in zinc are susceptible to scratches when using a drain snake. Additionally, it’s common for newbies to apply too much force when extending the snake, leading to scratches and related damage. You can also crack the porcelain with an electric auger if you’re snaking a toilet drain. If you’re using a manual snake or auger, the risk is minimal.

Many prevention methods can be used individually or in combination to waterproof your basement. Some of the most common waterproofing methods include:

  • Using dehumidifiers 

  • Silicate concrete sealers

  • Vapor barriers 

  • Baseboard channels 

  • Drain tile systems

  • Waterproofing paint

  • Drainage systems

  • Epoxy injection

  • Interior French drains

  • Exterior excavation and waterproofing

  • Cement waterproofing

  • Weep tiles

  • Liquid membrane

  • Sheet membrane 

  • Yard grading

  • Gutters and downspouts

The cost of basement waterproofing is $4,950 for the average homeowner. However, you could end up paying between $600 and $14,000, depending on factors like basement size, waterproofing method, and the region you live in. 

If you live in an area with heavy rainfall, you might be paying more for waterproofing than if you lived somewhere drier since waterproofing contractors would be in high demand. Likewise, a 500-foot basement costs between $2,500 and $5,000 to waterproof, but that price rises significantly for a larger basement.

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.  

When considering finishing your basement, take into account a few pros and cons:

Pros

  • Can increase the value of your home

  • Separate space from the rest of the house 

  • Customize and personalize the basement to suit your needs and style

  • Increase the amount of living space in your home

Cons

  • May not regain enough value to cover the cost of finishing

  • Lack of natural light if it’s below ground level

  • Moisture or flooding can cause costly damage

  • Installing plumbing and electrical can be messy and costly
