Basement Waterproofing in Pontiac, MI

Review Logo 4.8 (331)

Your Pontiac basement is at risk of water damage due to the region's clay soil and significant precipitation levels. With an average of 31 inches of annual rainfall and 42 inches of snow, moisture can accumulate around your foundation, causing the clay soil to expand and exert pressure on your basement walls. This can lead to cracks and leaks, creating an environment ripe for mold and musty odors. At FSM, we offer effective basement waterproofing solutions, including interior drains, sump pumps, wall vapor barriers, and dehumidifiers to keep your basement dry.

Foundation Systems of Michigan (FSM), a Groundworks Company, is dedicated to assisting Pontiac homeowners with their foundation repair, basement waterproofing, crawl space encapsulation, concrete, gutter, and generator needs. Our commitment is to deliver high-quality home repair solutions and personalized service throughout Michigan. With our experienced technicians, leading products in the industry, and nationally backed warranties, FSM is here to ensure your home's foundation and basement are secure and protected.

Common Causes of your Basement Problems in Pontiac

Foundation Cracks

Cracks in foundation walls or floors can let water seep into your basement, especially during heavy rain.

Poor Drainage Systems

Ineffective drainage, such as clogged gutters, downspouts, or poorly graded yards, directs water toward your foundation.

Hydrostatic Pressure

Water in the soil builds pressure against basement walls, filling the clay bowl, and forcing water through cracks and joints.

High Water Table

Rising groundwater during heavy rain or snowmelt can seep into your basement through cracks or porous concrete.

Faulty or Missing Sump Pump

Water from heavy rainfall or flooding can accumulate in your basement without a working sump pump.

Plumbing Leaks

Leaking pipes or fixtures near your foundation can saturate the soil, causing water to seep into your basement and cause moisture related problems.
