Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

How do I know if my basement needs waterproofing?
If you notice musty smells, water stains, damp walls, or visible mold, your basement may need waterproofing. Water after a storm is a clear warning sign.
What is crawl space encapsulation?
Crawl space encapsulation is a process of sealing off the space using a thick vapor barrier. It stops moisture, mold, and pests from entering and improves your indoor air quality.
How often should I have my sump pump serviced?
We recommend checking your sump pump at least once a year, ideally before the rainy season, to make sure it’s working correctly. Call us at 463-218-6767 for a free inspection!
Can moisture really affect my foundation?
Yes. Moisture can weaken concrete, shift soil, and lead to cracks or instability. It’s important to address these issues early to prevent long-term damage.

The project consisted of installing 80 feet of AmeriDrain crawlspace drainage system to create an efficient channel for directing groundwater away from the foundation, significantly reducing moisture buildup and helping to maintain a healthier environment beneath the home. To further support proper water management, a new AmeriSump sump station was installed, providing a dependable collection point and ensuring that water is effectively pumped out of the crawlspace during periods of heavy moisture. In addition to the drainage improvements, the team completed four lintel pours, strengthening critical structural areas and enhancing the overall stability and integrity of the home’s crawlspace. These combined upgrades offer long-term protection against water intrusion, improve structural reliability, and contribute to maintaining the home’s value and safety.

The project included the installation of 104 feet of AkwaGuard basement drainage system to effectively manage groundwater and prevent interior moisture issues. A new sump pump was installed to replace the existing unit, ensuring reliable water removal and improved system performance. Additionally, 15 downspout extensions were added to redirect roof runoff safely away from the foundation, reducing the risk of water infiltration. The job also involved installing one egress window and a matching area well, providing both natural light and a code-compliant emergency exit while enhancing the safety and functionality of the basement space.

A complete setup for four downspout extensions using PVC requires planning the layout, gathering the right materials, and ensuring proper water flow away from the home’s foundation. For each extension, you would run approximately sixty feet of PVC pipe from the base of the downspout to the discharge point, which helps move roof runoff far enough away to prevent erosion, flooding, or basement moisture. Most installations use 4-inch PVC (either Schedule 40 or SDR-35) because it provides excellent flow capacity and resists clogging, especially during heavy rain. Each 60-foot run typically uses six 10-foot sections of PVC, connected with couplings and sealed using primer and cement, meaning all four extensions generally require about 24 PVC pipes plus 20–24 couplings. At the downspout connection, an aluminum or plastic downspout-to-PVC adapter is attached, often followed by a short vertical piece of PVC and an elbow to direct the pipe toward the ground. The full line should be installed with a gradual slope—ideally about 1/8 inch per foot, so roughly 7–8 inches of total drop across the 60-foot length—to ensure smooth drainage without standing water. These PVC lines can be buried in shallow trenches or run along the surface, but burying them helps protect the pipe and creates a cleaner appearance. At the discharge end, you can attach a pop-up emitter, a daylight opening, a gravel-filled dry well, or even a simple splash block depending on your property’s layout and how you want the water dispersed. Once everything is connected, it’s important to test the system by running water through the downspouts to confirm that the slope is consistent and no joints leak. With all four extensions installed properly, you’ll have a durable, long-lasting drainage system that moves roof water safely and efficiently away from your home.

The project will begin with a full crawlspace cleanout to remove debris, improve accessibility, and prepare the area for drainage and encapsulation work. A total of 188 linear feet of AmeriDrain will be installed to establish a reliable drainage pathway, directing groundwater and moisture toward the newly installed AmeriSump system, which provides consistent and efficient water removal to help prevent standing water and future flooding concerns. Once drainage components are in place, 1,725 square feet of CleanSpace liner will be installed to fully encapsulate the crawlspace, creating a durable moisture barrier that helps control humidity, protect structural components, and improve overall energy efficiency in the home. To further safeguard the wood framing, the entire area will be treated with Timbor spray, providing long-lasting protection against mold growth, wood-destroying organisms, and moisture-related deterioration. These combined improvements will significantly enhance the cleanliness, durability, and long-term health of the crawlspace environment.

This project involves the installation of three (3) wall anchor systems to stabilize a basement foundation wall that is exhibiting inward bowing due to lateral soil pressure. The installation is designed to prevent further movement, restore structural integrity, and allow for gradual realignment of the wall over time. The work will be performed in accordance with industry standards for foundation repair and structural stabilization.

August 18, 1996 | Indianapolis , In

Our Crew upgraded this crawl space with a full moisture-management system including drainage, mechanical water removal, and vapor protection. A total of 136 linear feet of AmeriDrain drainage system was installed along the interior perimeter in a properly sloped trench with aggregate backfill to direct groundwater toward the sump location. One AmeriSump sump station was installed, including basin excavation, pump placement, and sealed discharge routing for active groundwater evacuation. A 1,268-square-foot vapor barrier was installed across the crawl space floor, with seams overlapped and sealed to minimize ground-moisture vapor transmission.
