We are Locally Owned & Operated!
Superior Basement Water Control & Remodeling is proud to say that we’re not a franchise; therefore, we don’t operate like one. When you call our experienced team to help you evaluate or repair your home or business’s wet basement, you won’t be directed to a customer service rep in some other part of the country (or some other part of the world.) Instead, you will speak directly with the owners and founders of our company. Our experts know how to deliver reliable waterproofing solutions. Our owners are experts at designing and delivering waterproofing solutions, so you can prevent damage and avoid costly repairs.
Over the past 25 years, we have maintained a 100% success rate because we never suggest a solution until we have a thorough understanding of your water problem and plans for your basement. During consultation, our experts will gather information about your situation, inspect your basement and then develop a cost efficient and effective solution that represents the greatest value we can deliver. Your trust is our priority!
In the vast majority of residential applications, the term Basement Waterproofing is a misnomer. Basement water remediation is done by strategically redirecting (or controlling) water from the outside or inside. We use the term Waterproofing since it’s the most familiar term in referring to basement water remediation.
Where and How is water redirected or controlled? We determine that by assessing your specific circumstances and future plans for the space. Water that causes pressure on the foundation walls or floor (hydrostatic pressure) can be relieved or reduced through a variety of approaches; they vary not only in method, but also in cost and disruption during the installation.
We’re not only basement water control experts experts at saving you time, inconvenience and MONEY! Most waterproofing companies will suggest trenching up your basement floor to install a water control system. In the past ten years, over 95% of our projects did not require digging up the clients’ floors. Our exclusive, patented, no-digging required system resolves basement flooding without the excessive cost and unnecessary mess of trenching your floor. PLUS, should the system ever need service, it’s readily accessible.
As a full service basement water control company, our experience is that 95% of basement water seepage is where the foundation wall and floor meet. The Baseboard System was patented in 1965 and specifically designed to resolve that; we’re not a franchise and have tested “copycats”, which don’t compare. If digging up your floor is necessary, we’ll tell you. If it doesn’t make sense to trench up your floor, WE’LL TELL YOU. Usually, digging costs more, is more invasive to install, and more difficult to service. So, when you’re told digging is a must; think again, and choose a SMARTER SOLUTION. This system is designed to be the best value in drying wet basements. We’ve had 100% success for 25 years and saved clients (literally) thousands of dollars!
It IS a smarter way to dry a basement!
