Comprehensive Waterproofing Services in Greater Pittsburgh, Western Pennsylvania and Eastern Ohio

Over time basements may be subject to problems that can arise when portions of your foundation show signs of water intrusion. This is result of hydrostatic pressure that can no longer be ignored. Without a reliable basement waterproofing system, your home is susceptible to water damage from a  leaky basement. This happens because of leaks from cracks in basement walls or water that accumulates underneath your basement floors. This is concern for many homeowners in Western Pennsylvania and Eastern Ohio and is the result of living in an area that typically gets regular rain and humid cycles in the weather pattern.

If you believe your home’s basement may need attention contact Matthews Wall Anchor!

Does Your Home Need Basement Waterproofing?

If you observe one or more frequently seen symptoms, it may be telling you that your basement needs professional attention.

Water Intrusion
Pooling or ponding water in your basement may indicate foundation problems that could be addressed with professional basement waterproofing.

Efflorescence on walls and floors
White, powdery “mineral” appearing deposits on your basement walls and floor, known as efflorescence, can indicate moisture problems that may require professional waterproofing solutions.

Mold and mildew growth
Mold and mildew thrive in damp, dark environments like basements. These harmful growths can cause musty odors, high humidity, serious health problems and damage your home’s structure.

Common Causes of Water Problems in Basements

Water can enter your home in numerous ways that can cause structural damage and health issues. Matthews Wall Anchor’s basement waterproofing experts can help you address any of the following causes of moisture problems:

  • Excessive condensation
  • Foundation and   basement wall cracks
  • Foundation walls built below the water table
  • Ground water seeping up through floor cracks
  • Hydrostatic pressure
  • Inadequate or improperly installed drainage systems
  • Incorrect slope or grading
  • Leaky window wells
  • Poorly maintained gutter systems
A utility room featuring a water tank surrounded by copper pipes is presented. The room, characterized by concrete block walls and a concrete floor, creates an industrial aesthetic. The copper pipes trace along the walls and connect to the tank, contrasting against the gray of the concrete. The scene is lit to showcase the space, ideal for themes related to home maintenance, infrastructure, or basic services. The visual setting suggests a practical, utilitarian area dedicated to essential home systems.
