"Rick and his team at Precision Waterproofing did an amazing job installing sump pumps in our basement. They were courteous, hardworking, and completed the project efficiently. I was especially impressed with the care they took with both the prep work and cleanup. Basement waterproofing can be a very dusty job, but they went above and beyond to protect our home and left our basement and the surrounding areas in great condition when they were finished. I would definitely recommend Rick and Precision Waterproofing to anyone needing waterproofing work."

"I can not speak higher of All American Waterproofing out of Wadsworth, Ohio! I live by the Wolf Creek Tavern in Norton’s loyal Oak & for the first time since moving in late 2001/early 2002 my basement suffered a massive flood August 8, 2023. Owner Mike Johns gave me his plan & the estimate. Other companies sent young people who never actually did the work and were basically just reinstalling what I already had downstairs. Mike had a much better plan, And I feel confident that I could finish my basement and it is never going to get wet again! I now have a sump pump in each corner of the basement, the sump pumps have secondary backup pumps, they have battery back ups in case the power goes out, all the pumps and all my downspouts all the way around the house are now dumped far from the house down by the road. The foreman Pete, his journeyman, 3rd year Apprentice did a fantastic job! Extremely friendly and professional! I felt completely comfortable Leaving to go to the store or to get f"

"We had multiple basement waterproofing companies come look at our problem and The Ohio Basement Company was the one we trusted the most! They didn t give us a sales pitch and try to scare us into using them like other Ohio waterproofing companies do! They were fair priced, they worked fast and kept everything clean! My basement is cleaner now than before they came! And all of our water issues are gone! We are very happy with our decision in using this company!!"

"They did a great job waterproofing the back wall of our basement. They were quick, efficient and treated the mold before covering the wall with vinyl. They had the best price. I would rate 5 stars if they cleaned up a bit better than they did plus they left the water dripping in my basement sink. Overall, I would recommend them for the work they did."

"Very impressed with Mike Perry, who met with me twice and inspected and measured the basement thoroughly before I contracted for a large basement waterproofing job. He sent a professional team who were on time every day. One small unavoidable issue was taken care of promptly. Their price was reasonable and I would recommend Mike and his team for basement waterproofing."

"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."

"In November 2024 we hired Interstate Systems, Inc., located in West Salem, OH to repair and waterproof the water damage in our basement. The men working on the job were exceptional. We watched them work extremely hard for three days straight. When the work was complete, my husband and I could not have been happier. It was a pleasure to work with their President, Mr. David Nagel. Mr. Nagel took his time to explain everything clearly so we would understand exactly what the project entailed. We thank the entire crew for helping us solve a major problem. Jim and Kimberly M."

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

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?

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.

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?

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.
