Basement Waterproofing in Glen Allen, VA

Review Logo 4.6 (1,439)

Glen Allen experiences a significant amount of rainfall throughout the year, averaging around 40 inches annually. This abundant precipitation combined with the local clay soils can lead to serious basement water issues. The soil expands when wet, creating hydrostatic pressure against basement walls, which can result in cracks and leaks. Homeowners may notice signs of moisture like musty odors, efflorescence, or water-stained walls. JES offers effective solutions such as sump pumps, interior drainage systems, and dehumidifiers to ensure your basement remains dry and safe from water intrusion.

At JES Foundation Repair (JES), a Groundworks Company, we are dedicated to providing the highest quality foundation repair and waterproofing solutions in Glen Allen. Our experienced technicians utilize industry-leading products and techniques to tackle your home's specific needs. With a commitment to personalized service and nationally backed warranties, we aim to restore and protect your foundation, crawl space, and basement against the challenges posed by Glen Allen's climate.

"It's very rare to find a service provider these days who look out for you like JES Foundation Repair did for me. Look at my reviews, I've been doing this a while and I don't mind calling them like I see them. I went into this with GREAT trepidation. I have had so many service providers try to overcharge, never call back, talk over my head, just fill in the blank. In EVERY point of this effort I was blown away. They should get an award for customer service for the communication alone! I set up an inspection and they sent me a confirmation. Beforehand, I got a note. On his way, Corey gave me a call. Then, when he arrived I had a true expert on my hands. Like a CSI episode he gave the problem a detail investigation. Here I am worried about all the other service work I've had done. Corey gave me his professional assessment, we discussed it, and away we went. At no point in my entire experience with JES was I let down. I am a phenomenal fan and will always highly recommend them for your foundation needs."

Common Causes of your Basement Problems in Glen Allen

Foundation Cracks

Cracks in foundation walls or floors can let water seep into your basement, especially during heavy rain.

Poor Drainage Systems

Ineffective drainage, such as clogged gutters, downspouts, or poorly graded yards, directs water toward your foundation.

Hydrostatic Pressure

Water in the soil builds pressure against basement walls, filling the clay bowl, and forcing water through cracks and joints.

High Water Table

Rising groundwater during heavy rain or snowmelt can seep into your basement through cracks or porous concrete.

Faulty or Missing Sump Pump

Water from heavy rainfall or flooding can accumulate in your basement without a working sump pump.

Plumbing Leaks

Leaking pipes or fixtures near your foundation can saturate the soil, causing water to seep into your basement and cause moisture related problems.
