"USA Waterproofing & Foundation Services did an Outstanding job on our basement!! The manager Mark was extremely professional and personable and coordinated the job with our schedule in a timely fashion. Mark sent out a qualified individual (John) to ascertain our dilemma and make the appropriate recommendation to correct the problem. The men that came to actually do the job were Awesome, they worked efficiently and did exactly what was requested in not only a timely fashion but in a proficient manner and went out of their way to come prepared and answered any additional questions we had at the time of the project. I would without reservation Highly Recommend USA Waterproofing, you will not be disappointed!! Additionally, we did quotes with three other companies and USA Waterproofing and Foundation Services had the best pricing and again, their quality of work was Excellent!! I would definitely use this company for any additional work needed at our house in the future."

"Steve arrived on time to inspect the basement of our family home for mold. He was very professional and thorough in his review of our our basement walls and spaces, and informed us we need to remove some old paneling and ceiling tiles, and could do much of the needed cleaning on our own. We appreciate Steve's honesty and taking his time to explain things to us in easy to understand language and providing additional tips to keep good air quality in our basement. We will highly recommend AirGuard to our family and friends for similar services."

"I had a pretty bad flood in my basement after the heavy storms that came through back in June. I realized that my sump pump was the reason so I needed to replace it. I wanted something with more horsepower and after doing some research, I decided an ejector pump would work best for my home. Tyler was very friendly and understanding of my situation. He told me about some options, gave me the literature and a fair price for what I wanted. He and his team were very professional and attentive and definitely knowledgeable about the equipment and installation process. I was a little apprehensive about going with a company that’s just starting out, but Tyler gave me a good feeling about their company and products. I’m very happy with the installation and the service I received. I wouldn’t hesitate to contact them again (although I hope I never have to) for any future needs. We have multiple rental properties, so I would call him first if I ever need service at any of them. A+++"

"I wish I had hired them first! I hired another company to fix my moving bowed and shearing basement walls. They were primarily a waterproofing company, but said they had the solutions to my issues. 3 months after they were complete, my walls cracked and shifted again. (Note, in the attached photos, the patchwork quilt on the walls was the OTHER company.) OBA fixed my issues the correct way. And they were great at every step. The work crew Caleb, Delontae, and Dylan were fast, efficient, and cleaned up when they were done. Caleb made sure to explain what was happening as they did the work and ask if I had questions. The work was thorough, and I feel good about it. And even better, they'll be out in 6 months to ensure everything is working as it should and make adjustments if needed."

"Prompt response on a Sunday morning due to a call for sewer line backing up.  Ben was at our house in less than an hour and working on the problem.  Ben explained what it could be as well as the methods that would be used to correct the problem.  Everything went as Ben had planned and he went the extra mile to minimize any cleanup in our basement.  This situation could have been much worse, but Ben's prompt response, courteous attention to detail, and his work ethic all played a part in our successful outcome.  We would not hesitate to use this company again and I would definitely request Ben!

"They are great to work with. Communication was superior. They stand by their work. A few years ago I had waterproofing done in my basement and this time they spray foamed the cavities of the basement too. Both times they did awesome work and cleaned up too! I highly recommend this company!"

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

In Mentor, it’s smart to keep a dehumidifier, backup sump pump battery, wet/dry vacuum, and a reliable moisture meter for ongoing moisture control. Stock hydraulic cement for patching cracks, waterproofing membrane or sealant for walls, and heavy-duty plastic sheeting for temporary barriers. Gutter cleaning tools, downspout extenders, and crack monitoring strips are especially helpful, given Mentor’s frequent freeze-thaw cycles and proximity to Lake Erie.

Helpful?

In Mentor, consider the impact of high humidity, heavy clay soils, and frequent spring snowmelt on your basement waterproofing plans. Soil expansion and shifting water tables can stress foundations. Check your property’s elevation relative to Lake Erie and review local drainage ordinances or neighborhood runoff patterns. Planning projects outside of peak rainy seasons helps avoid delays, while mature tree roots and older construction often require extra moisture control.

Helpful?

In Mentor, neglecting to clear gutters, allowing downspouts to drain near the foundation, or skipping annual sump pump maintenance can undermine waterproofing. Storing damp items or firewood in the basement, blocking ventilation, and ignoring small cracks—especially during freeze-thaw cycles—can accelerate moisture issues. Overwatering landscaping near the foundation or failing to grade soil away from the home also increases the risk of water intrusion.

Helpful?

In Mentor, unexpected issues like discovering foundation settling, the need to reroute underground utilities, or hitting bedrock during excavation can arise. Additional expenses may come from soil analysis, landscape restoration, or temporary accommodations if extensive work is needed. Mold remediation and upgrades for code compliance sometimes surface. High demand during spring and summer can also lead to scheduling delays, so plan ahead to minimize disruptions.

Helpful?

In Mentor, north- and west-facing foundation walls, floor-wall seams, and corners often need extra attention due to prevailing winds and soil movement from Lake Erie weather. Window wells, utility entry points, and basement stairwells are also vulnerable, especially during spring thaw. Homes in low-lying areas or near mapped floodplains may see more frequent water intrusion and should monitor these zones closely.
