Basement Waterproofing

A wet basement is a common problem.  Fixing this situation is usually best left to a professional since the work required to permanently resolve the issues involves a specialized skill set.  A wet basement can cause mildew and mold, and keeping water out will prevent these.

There are many reasons and factors that can cause wet basements. Wet basement issues range from high water tables, bad grading, poor gutter drainage, cracks in walls, sealant failure, porous block seepage, and cracks caused by settlement.
If you suffer from a damp or wet basement, Island Associates can help.  We will assess your problem, identify and explain the issues and causes, and, of course, explain how to solve the problems.   

Depending on the issue and solution, we will perform outside work including sealing and drainage systems. A French Drain is built on the outside wall of your foundation and diverts water through a ground drainage system away from the basement walls. Proper drainage is important to ensure that a basement stays dry.
