Nothing is worse than leaks and moisture in your basement. Not only does this cause water damage and cracking on the floor and walls, but it also leads to the formation of molds, which affects air quality. As with many home repairs, the longer you wait to fix your moisture problem, the worse it's going to get, so it's very important to be proactive about dealing with this issue. With over 40 years of experience in waterproofing, foundation repair, crack repair, brick sealing and other related structural work, the contractors at Jaco Waterproofing are the most qualified professionals in the Cincinnati and Dayton areas to take care the problem.

Every building, regardless of age or material type, is susceptible to leaking; and, of course, there's a greater risk of this problem occurring when it's rainy or wet outside for prolonged periods of time. This situation may be further exasperated if the water table is higher than the foundation of the house itself. 

What are some of the things that Jaco Waterproofing can do to solve this issue? Basement waterproofing is tackled from the inside by installing an interior drainage system, which collects the water under the floor. This water is then channeled to a sump pump—a device which sits in a roughly 2-foot deep pit that's dug into the lowest part of the basement. The pump activates automatically, and directs excess water out of the house and away from the foundation.

This type of project can be quite complex, which is why Jaco Waterproofing offers a limited lifetime warranty and financing options. Learn more about waterproofing your basement by visiting the company online, and schedule an inspection by calling (513) 738-0084.
