Basement Drainage Solutions
Interior Drainage Solutions for Safe, Dry, and Protected Basements
Effective basement drainage is the backbone of a dry and healthy home. Matthews Wall Anchor & Waterproofing Services provides professional basement drainage system installation for homeowners throughout Pennsylvania, Ohio, and West Virginia. As part of our interior waterproofing approach, our drainage systems are designed to collect groundwater and direct it safely to your sump pump system—preventing seepage, pooling, and water intrusion.
Whether your basement experiences moisture after heavy rain, seasonal flooding, or ongoing dampness caused by hydrostatic pressure, our drainage solutions help control water before it becomes a problem. Combined with sump pumps, sump pits, and waterproofing measures, interior drainage creates a reliable and efficient water-management system.
Signs You Need a Basement Drainage System
Your basement may require a new or improved drainage system if you notice:
- Water seeping where the wall meets the floor
- Damp spots or discoloration along basement walls and edges
- Water pooling or spreading during heavy rain
- Persistent basement humidity or musty odors
- Efflorescence (white, powdery mineral deposits) on basement walls
- Mold or mildew growth along floor edges or corners
- High groundwater levels measured in your sump pit
- Sump pump running constantly with no drainage channels present
- Previous flooding or moisture buildup after storms
These symptoms indicate water entering through the foundation or migrating beneath the slab—problems that interior drainage is specifically designed to solve.
