Cove Joint Seepage
This is the area where the wall and floor meet inside of the basement. Whenever there is a weak seal here, it is only a matter of time before moisture from the soil outside is able to get in and cause damage. Rising and falling water tables caused from droughts and excessive rainfall can put a lot of pressure on this seal, and eventually, it can cause it to break.
Some contractors will recommend re-sealing this area to take care of the moisture intrusion. However, at St. Louis Basement Pros, we realize that this is not an effective way to go about taking care of the problem. Sealing this area will only cause the pressure from the earth to build up elsewhere, and this can cause a variety of other problems, including leaning or bowed walls.
Basement Problems
Testimonials
Basement Wall Crack
These guys provided me with a prompt estimate for basement wall crack repair and they did thorough work. Excellent work by Tony.
Sump Pump
They were reliable, communicative, and accessible. We were leaving the day they started the sump pump installation job. They arrived on time and got right to work. The guys were polite and professional, explained exactly what they’d be doing. We left town and the owner called to let me know they had finished. When we returned, the basement was finished and all materials were cleaned up. It honestly looked more clean than when I had left. We had one issue with a drain at the basement door. It wasn’t properly draining into the sump system. I called and within 24 hours, they were out to connect the drain to the sewer line instead. Again, they were professional and worked quickly. I’ve had no problems since and I love the dry basement! I would highly recommend this company. Ryan and his team really took care of us.
Basement waterproofing
We waterproofed the basement for Sara S. in Belleville, IL. She was happy with our service.
