How to Choose a Wisconsin Basement Waterproofing Company

Wet basements are not fun! Flooded basements are a homeowner’s nightmare. If you are suffering from constant worry about the health and safety of your basement, it’s time for a change. If you’ve tried DIY efforts to fix pooling water, cracks in your foundation, leaky basement windows, or high humidity, it’s time to find an experienced, professional waterproofer you can trust. A wet basement wastes valuable living space, damages building materials and stored possessions, pollutes the indoor air, risks the health of those living in the home, and puts your investment in your home at risk. That adds up to considerable risk.

Look for expertise, training, and experience.

When you choose a basement contractor in the Basement Systems network, you get a local company trained in and committed to the best waterproofing practices. Each contractor listed here is an expert in the diagnosis of sub-grade moisture problems as well as the design and installation of proper drainage, moisture and humidity control, and basement materials.

Why Do Wisconsin Basements Get Wet?

Flooding: Floods in Wisconsin happen in the spring, when April showers meet melting snow. So it's no surprise that a snowy winter leads to higher-than-average water levels in rivers and streams. Ice jams often make the problem worse. While flooding can hit northern and central parts of the state, homeowners in Southern Wisconsin still remember the 2008 flooding that hit 31 counties (NOAA Natioanl Weather Service). Flooding can happen at other times of year, too, given Lake Michigan’s record-high water levels. Milwaukee and other cities along the coast are at risk of flooding, as happened even with a January 2020 winter storm. Forecasts for 2020 for the state foresee higher-than-normal rainfalls, putting unprotected basements at risk.

Other causes: Maybe your basement is experiencing a minor form of flooding, such as water pooling in a corner or an inefficient sump pump during a rainstorm. The grading around your foundation or a clogged drainage pipe or gutter can cause excess moisture in the basement. Hydrostatic pressure from the soils around the foundation can cause floor and wall cracks, which then invite moisture in when it rains or snow melts. Sometimes the source of a leak is clear, such as a rusty window or door sill. Finally, plumbing failures can lead to wet basement floors and the damp environment of the basement can cause excess humidity and encourage mold growth (with unpleasant consequences, such as rotting wood, soggy furnishings, and musty smells).

The purpose of a basement waterproofing system is to address any potential sources of moisture or leaks and prevent future water damage.
