"Ark Basement Services is a very honest family owned company. Dylan spent much time surveying our basement problem and giving us a fair appraisal. He was very personable and shared options for us to achieve a dry basement. Arks contract was very straight forward and easy to understand. Justin and his crew was very precise. He was very knowledgeable. Justin would take time to answer our questions during the process. They took time to cover our belongings with protective plastic and even sweep up after the job was complete. We would recommend them to anyone in need of a dry basement.

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

When hiring in Akron, look for contractors with proven experience handling local clay soil and older foundations. Ask about their process for foundation drainage, request references from recent Akron projects, and ensure they offer written warranties. Confirm they carry insurance for excavation work and understand local permit requirements. Reliable pros will explain how they address soil movement and provide detailed, transparent project plans.

Helpful?

In Akron, basement waterproofing maintenance should include annual sump pump testing, clearing foundation drainage pipes, and inspecting waterproofing membranes for wear. Each spring, check gutters and downspouts for blockages, and in fall, remove debris from exterior drains. Due to Akron’s clay soil, monitor for pooling water near the foundation and schedule professional mold prevention inspections every few years to catch hidden moisture issues early.

Helpful?

Akron homeowners should check if permits are needed and ensure new drainage solutions comply with local stormwater management rules. Notify neighbors if exterior work could impact shared property lines, and protect existing landscaping. In historic neighborhoods, extra guidelines may apply. Before digging, have utility lines marked. Book reputable contractors early for spring projects, and confirm that any waterproofing warranty can transfer to future buyers.

Helpful?

In Akron, unexpected costs can arise from extra time needed to excavate dense clay soil, repairing hidden foundation cracks, or upgrading drainage systems to meet code. Mold remediation may be necessary if moisture is discovered behind walls. Additional expenses sometimes include restoring landscaping, rerouting utility lines, or installing backup sump pumps if water tables are high, especially during wet seasons.

Helpful?

Akron’s heavy spring rains, humid summers, and freeze-thaw cycles increase the risk of basement leaks and foundation drainage problems. Spring is ideal for exterior waterproofing since soil is softer and easier to work with, while interior projects can be done year-round. The region’s clay soil expands during wet weather, so waterproofing systems must be robust to handle shifting and prevent water intrusion.
