Leaky Basement: Poured Foundation

Even a well-built home will settle over time, which causes shifting of the foundation and ultimately, a basement wall crack in the foundation. Water then filters through the soil, following the path of least resistance. It will make its way to your basement through a foundation crack before it has a chance to get your drain tile, your basement gets wet! This is the most common way to get a leaky basement. Tie hole leaks are also common in poured walls, especially if the construction patching fails.

Leaky Basement: Cinder Block Foundation

When exterior drain tiles get plugged, cinder block foundation walls are hollow inside; water eventually gathers. When the hydrostatic pressure gets too great on the cinder blocks, this is where you get water where the wall and the floor meet.

Stablizing Bowed Walls

Both wall types can result in a leaky basement from a basement wall crack, or from
the location of the tie holes; especially if the construction patching fails. Stabilizing Bowed Walls.

Sump Pump Installation for poor drainage

If your property does not have natural drainage from proper elevation, consider sump pump installation from Bone Dry to remove any water collecting in your basement. Sump pump installation can help you prevent a leaky basement from water overflow, and will provide a good backup system - even in a power outage.

Basement Waterproofing, MI

Bone Dry basement waterproofing, MI, can repair 90% of cracks and leaks from the inside of your basement. Leaky basement repairs located inside your home are definitely more cost effective. Outside repairs, usually leaks behind the kitchen, can require digging down to the footing to make repairs. They often require tile repair as well.

High Pressure Crack Injection Repair

Insist on the superior pressure injection system used by Bone Dry Waterproofing to repair your basement wall crack! This is a structural repair that actually stops the foundation from moving. Others may use an inferior 2-part caulk gun, which cannot be applied to damp walls, and only generates 100psi (and also may crumble under pressure). Bone Dry Waterproofing uses a high-pressure crack injection repair system, which can be applied even to a damp, actively leaking basement wall crack. Bone Dry gives you the most reliable basement waterproofing MI has to offer. http://fortressstablization.com/ Product that is used for Carbon Fiber Basement Repair.
