"Great work at a much lower price than the other companies for the same project. Crew was friendly, professional and informative about the project. Nick, Brandon and Tim did a great job in our basement installing the new drain channel, piping and wall barrier over the old somewhat moldy walls. Also repaired an old faulty sump pump drain outside the house that was causing poor drainage. Highly recommend All American."

"Jake and his crew from The Ohio Basement Company did incredible work, I am so happy with the sump pump system they installed. Not only did they do a great job, they left my basement in better condition than when they found it. Washer and Dryer were leveled and the framing that had to be removed was put back in better condition. Such a nice group of guys, I highly recommend them!!"

"We had a crack in our poured concrete foundation. We had estimates from other companies that involved waterproofing the entire lower level (it was already waterproofed) at very high prices without even addressing the crack. Eco-Seal Home Solutions addressed the problem we needed fixed, gave us a fair price, and completed the work in just a few hours. We will call them again if we have any other foundation cracks. Great work."

"They did a quick and good job of replacing our water heater. Called again due to standing water in our yard after every rain. They came out and installed a drain and tied my downspouts into it. They also put the excess dirt against the house to improve the grading. I can say after the fall rains and the repeated freezing/thawing in winter that the drain has kept everything dry and we have had no more water issues in the basement. I would recommend these guys."

"Wyatt did an awesome job. This was a major job. I had a water pipe break just under the house foundation. They initially believed it could be reached from the outside, but determined the break was just under the foundation. Because of this, they needed to break up the concrete floor in the basement at the outside wall. They carefully removed the floor molding and the wood boards before jackhammering a 2 foot by 1 foot hole at the edge of the floor at the outside wall. They were very neat and tidy. The broken pipe was fixed in less than a day. They then cleaned out many of the faucets and came back the next day to adust the water pressure and be sure all faucets were working properly. They kept us informed at all steps of the process and the cost was less than their estimate. We highly recommend Wyatt for your plumbing needs."

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

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.

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?

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?

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.
