A Free Basement Waterproofing Assessment Gets You a Close Analysis from Our Specialists

Kansas City-area homeowners should always be on the lookout for water in their basement. With last year’s drought and the Kansas City rains headed our way, foundation issues can occur if certain signs are dismissed. Once Kansas City’s clay soil gets extremely dry after a long period with no rain (last year’s drought), the soil is not able to quickly absorb rainfall when it comes. Excess water ends up having no place to go except straight through the clay soil and against your foundation’s walls. 

If there are openings or cracks in the foundation, that unabsorbed water finds its way into the basement. When homeowners see the first signs of water, they begin wondering what they should do and start to worry about the condition of their foundation. They search online to see if water in the basement is normal after rainfall and often end up with a variety of answers. This can be frustrating for homeowners because they aren’t quite sure what to do, but they can’t seem to get the concern off their minds. It’s not always as easy as grabbing the wet vac and industrial fans to dry up the water. There can certainly be underlying foundation issues causing problems that should be addressed by a foundation specialist. 

Instead of adding another stressor to your list, homeowners should contact PierMagic for a free waterproofing and foundation inspection to determine whether they need the support of our superior basement waterproofing company. As the Kansas City experts in basement foundation repairs, PierMagic will perform a thorough, free inspection of your foundation to determine your specific waterproofing needs. You can schedule this free consultation in advance to ensure water doesn’t get the best of you during the rain storms (and droughts) ahead.

How Do You Know You Need a Basement Waterproofing Solution?

There are several signs that homeowners can look for to decide whether their basement should be waterproofed. The first of these, of course, is noticing water in the basement after it rains, either recently or in the past. 

In addition, these signs will let you know it’s time to call PierMagic, Kansas City’s premier basement waterproofing company. When you call, you can schedule a waterproofing inspection to determine what services will keep your basement dry.

Signs that you need a waterproofing solution for your foundation are:

• Water collects around the exterior of your foundation. 
• Water collects in your yard and takes a long time to dry out.
• Water comes up through the basement floor.
• Your basement is very humid.

Once onsite, you can expect the experienced PierMagic specialists to perform a thorough inspection of the inside and outside of your foundation. We’ll identify the extent of cracks in your foundation walls, analyze your foundation’s drainage system, consider the humidity levels in your basement, and much more, to determine how water is getting in. Our main goal is to provide you with the best solutions to remedy the water issues, so you can make the decision that makes the most sense for you and your family. 

Once we’ve completed our assessment, our team of basement foundation repair experts will suggest the best solutions from our variety of effective methods for waterproofing. These solutions could include:
