Foundation Waterproofing Services

Waterproofing is essential in protecting your foundation from the harmful effects of water. Whether your home experiences a wet basement, flooding, or high humidity, we offer a variety of waterproofing methods to address and prevent these issues.

  • Exterior Waterproofing: This service involves installing waterproof membranes on the outside of your foundation walls to create a protective barrier against moisture. By preventing water from penetrating your foundation, we help avoid future leaks and extensive water damage. This method is highly effective for keeping water from entering your basement or crawl space and is the best solution for homes with significant water issues.

  • Interior Waterproofing: Interior waterproofing involves the installation of drainage systems, sump pumps, and dehumidifiers within your home to manage water that enters your basement. These systems help to collect and direct water away from your foundation, ensuring your basement remains dry. Interior waterproofing is often used in conjunction with exterior waterproofing or when exterior solutions are not viable.

  • Drainage Solutions: Proper drainage around your home is key to protecting your foundation. We offer services such as grading adjustments, French drains, and gutter system maintenance to direct water away from your foundation. By ensuring that water flows away from your home, we reduce the pressure and risk of moisture infiltration, preventing cracks, mold, and mildew.

  • Vapor Barriers: Vapor barriers are installed in basements and crawl spaces to reduce the humidity levels inside your home. These barriers help prevent moisture from seeping into the air, which can lead to mold growth and rotting. We use high-quality materials to effectively seal off your foundation and keep your home dry and healthy.

  • Waterproof Coatings: Applying waterproof coatings to the walls and floors of your basement or crawl space provides an extra layer of protection against moisture. These coatings are designed to be durable and long-lasting, sealing the surfaces and preventing any future water seepage, ensuring that your foundation stays dry even in the most challenging conditions.

Foundation Repair Services

If your home is already experiencing foundation issues, timely and effective repairs are essential to maintaining the stability of your property. At Crest Home Improvements, we offer a variety of foundation repair services that address common issues such as cracks, settling, and shifting.

  • Crack Repair: Over time, your foundation can develop cracks, whether from settling, soil movement, or moisture damage. Cracks in foundation walls, floors, or ceilings allow water to enter and may compromise the overall strength of the structure. Our crack repair services involve filling, sealing, and reinforcing foundation cracks to prevent further damage and water intrusion, restoring the strength and integrity of your foundation.

  • Pier & Beam Foundation Repair: Many homes with crawl spaces or uneven floors suffer from foundation instability due to settling or shifting. Using pier and beam foundation repair, we stabilize the foundation by placing piers deep into the soil to support the weight of the structure. This method is ideal for homes that require leveling or stabilization and can correct sloping floors or uneven surfaces caused by soil movement.

  • Slab Foundation Repair: Slab foundations can be susceptible to shifting, cracking, and settling, particularly in areas with expansive soils. We offer slab lifting and leveling services to correct these issues, using specialized equipment to lift the slab back into its proper position. Our team uses methods like polyurethane foam injection to lift and stabilize the foundation, addressing cracks, sinking, and uneven flooring

  • Settling Foundation Repair: If your home’s foundation is settling unevenly due to soil instability, our repair services can prevent further damage. Using advanced techniques like soil stabilization, we can lift and level your foundation, addressing shifting or tilting caused by poor soil conditions. Our foundation engineers assess the underlying causes of settling and implement solutions to stabilize and restore your foundation's balance.

  • Foundation Stabilization: For homes with significant shifting or structural movement, we offer foundation stabilization services using advanced methods like helical piers and carbon fiber straps. These solutions prevent future movement and reinforce the foundation, ensuring that your home remains stable and secure. Whether your foundation is bowing, cracking, or sinking, we have the expertise and equipment to provide a long-lasting fix.

  • Underpinning Services: In cases where a foundation has experienced significant sinking or settlement, underpinning may be necessary. This method involves extending the foundation to more stable soil layers, ensuring that your home is supported and level. Underpinning can prevent future settling and improve the overall stability of your foundation.
