We are a family owned and locally operated basement waterproofing company here in Central PA. We specialize in basement waterproofing and foundation structural repair, as well as water management systems. We use standard billing, which is 1/3 deposit, 1/3 third at start of job and 1/3 upon completion (this varies on job length). We have a variety of special promotional discounts and benefits through the internet, print advertising, and social networking sites. We have certain types of in-house financing available under special circumstances and can be utilized upon companies discretion. We really do care about our customers and want to make sure that every potential client is fully educated about their particular situation so that they can make a smart decision because they have all the facts. We don't want to "sell" anyone. We just want to help you get the right job done for the right price. Give us a shot. We will not let you down.

"Horrible - I had Mike out October of 2019 he impressed my wife and I with his knowledge and what seemed like a caring, stand behind his work man. I saved for 2 years to have Access basement system’s come out and do the job right. On day one the team gutted all exterior walls I was impressed. Day 2 woke up to water all over the basement because they did not reconnect a drain and water from the shower was dumped in the basement. On day 2 only 2 of his crew showed up and that was all we had for the next 2 weeks. The guys that did the work were good guys. No issue there only saw Mike to get money. Water is still coming through the walls worse then before and causing mold. 5 calls And NO response from the family business that cares. I have filed a complaint with the BBB and hope that we can get this resolved. Mike if you see this I hope that we can work this out and you hold up to “we will take care of you like family. “"

Structural Engineering questions, answered by experts

A structural engineer evaluates any structural components, like floors, foundations, walls, and roofs, to ensure they can support the structure. They also consider the soil quality in your area, potentially extreme weather conditions, and proximity to bodies of water and groundwater to ensure your building can withstand any stresses placed on it by the surrounding environment. Structural engineers work on both new and existing buildings.

Cathedral ceilings make a statement in your home, but at the cost of your attic space. Normal attics are wide open, which allows warm air to move around and exit your home. Because of this, cathedral ceilings make your home less energy efficient and put your ceiling at risk of venting issues if you’re not careful. They also reduce your attic storage space, potentially cause an echo, and even make it harder to change a light bulb.

Through proper drainage solutions and compacting the foundation soil.

Building codes for spiral staircases will vary by your location. Most local codes will specify minimum tread width, riser height, handrail requirements, and headroom. These standards help ensure safety and accessibility for all users. Always check local codes before you begin the installation to ensure compliance and avoid costly modifications or fines.

Yes, you can put a doorway in a structural wall; in fact, most exterior doors are set into structural walls. The project is a little more challenging than installing a door in a non-load-bearing wall because you need a structural engineer to assess the wall and make sure it’s safe to create a wall opening. Your engineer’s report will include instructions for your contractor on how and where to install additional supports, like steel headers above the door, to distribute the weight above to the wall on either side of the door.
